The first iPad collaboration day was full of sharing, learning and creating. The day began with an EdCamp style, which means no presenters, no agenda and a variety of topics. Teachers that were interested in sharing their expertise on a topic put their name on a board. This allowed teachers, who were interested in learning about the various topics, to float around the room and learn from their colleagues. Topics that were covered included Schoology, project-based learning and creation with the Osmo. What better way to learn than from other teachers that are already versed in a topic or tool and are willing to share their tips and tricks!

Google Docs: Have a great font, color and size in your doc? Want to make other text look the same without having to highlight the text and change each of those accents? Why not use the Format Painter tool?

1. Click inside or highlight the font that has the style, color and size you want to copy.

2. Click on the format painter icon.

3. Drag across the text selection you want to change to that font you love. And voila! All of the formatting (color, size, font) is magically painted on this new text as you drag your cursor across the selection.
