YouTube
1. Sign-in--YouTube is one of the Google apps. If you are logged into gmail or calendar, just click to open a new tab and open YouTube. You can have your own channel, playlists, and subscriptions.
2. Subscribe to Channels--This allows you to see and know when your favorite channel adds new content. When you click on subscriptions in your lists, you will see everything loaded from your subscriptions. For example, you can subscribe to the old "SchoolHouse Rocks" videos.
3. Build playlists of your favorite videos--This allows you to have a list of videos in your account without having to search for them each time. You can also share these playlists with others.
Click here for a complete "how-to" list with short videos on making YouTube a better experience for you.
Grant writing time
If you are looking at any type of software, I highly recommend web-based software that is easily updated by the company. Most importantly you want software that can be accessed by the students anywhere they have internet access to allow for anytime learning opportunities.
Let us know if we can assist you with pricing as well. We have access to education vendors that may offer better pricing than what you can find at a normal retail store online.
Check out the Education Foundation website for more information including the grant application and deadlines. Good luck with your grant writing process!

Message from the Director
Happy New Year!
I thought it would be fun to focus on something a little different for the New Year. I know everyone works on goals for the New Year such as losing weight, getting organized, saving money, etc. There are so many great apps that can help with all of these New Year's resolutions. Check out the six apps below and see if they help you to get fit and get organized. Then go to your app store and download on your device to get started today!
Have a great 2016!
