The EdTech Connection
Weekly updates on what's happening in EdTech: 12 Feb 2018
Extensions have landed!
Before rolling this out to everyone, it would be ever so helpful if you would take a few minutes to try installing one or two from the list and give me any feedback on the process. The only extensions that can be installed are the ones on the list. Because I can't possibly know every extension that every teacher would want, I have also created a Form that can be used to suggest new extensions that teachers would like to be added to the list.
More detailed information for everyone will be shared shortly, so please don't feel like you have to let all of your teachers know now.
G Suite Meets Star Wars
- May the Forms Be With You - Going from Padawan to Jedi Master in Google Forms
- Revenge of the Sheets - Learn to Google Sheets the Jedi Way
Jesse's other resources and presentations can all be found on his website, which can be found by clicking HERE.
Reminders for itslearning
- How to view teacher planners: If you (or admin) need to view teacher planners in itslearning, you can do that without having to enroll in their classes. Instructions can be found by clicking HERE.
- Enrolling in courses: With the recent online learning days, some of your admin may want a more detailed view of certain courses than they can get from just viewing the Planner. Instructions for how admin can enroll in an IC-synced course can be found by clicking HERE.
- Merging courses: As new semester courses are created (normally at the HS level) for students who enter with .5 credit, those courses will need to be merged with the year-long course. Instructions for that can be found by clicking HERE.
