Google Drawing

I attempted to use Google Drawing a bit tonight.  Unfortunately, my lack of artist skills and little know how of using Drawing left me a bit short.  I tried to find an atomic learning link to better explain the capabilities, but again came up short.  I then clicked on the help key within google drawing only to be disappointed once again.  The option of watching a video introduction was not specific to Drawing, instead it was a general video of the advantages of using Google documents.   I look forward to more tutorials being developed as this application ages.

I can see how children would thoroughly enjoy the art abilities available in this application offers.  Each year my daughter's school hosts a technology fair (similar to science and social studies fairs).  Each student is required to produce one technology based project.  Most of the work for this project is done during technology class time, however, the projects are sent home on discs for the children who wish to enhance their projects on their own time.  Most of the projects are age appropriate with many at the elementary grade doing a pictorial book report.  In the past, most of this work has been done on PowerPoint.  However, I would like to recommend that they better utilize Google apps.  The student can use both presentation and Drawing for these projects.
