Session description

Teachers of any subject or grade level will leave with dozens of ideas for using Google tools (and some non-Google resources) for increasing creativity, productivity, collaboration, and communication. A thorough file of all resources will be shared so you can explore in more detail later, at your convenience.

Outline

The first topic covered is Google Search. Each time I do this session, I'm tempted to remove Google Search tips. After all, we all use Google Search. When I'm done with the section on Google Search, I ask attendees if I should leave it in for future sessions. Without a doubt, I am told every time to leave it in. The session proceeds through the TOP GOODIES on the document. As time allows, some of the HONORABLE MENTION GOODIES are presented. While we don't usually have time to dig into more than that, I always leave some time at the end to see if anyone has a request from resources not yet shared.

Outcomes

While the session can be overwhelming, I charge attendees at the start of the session to find at least one ah-ha to grab onto that they can take and use immediately - not just in their class when they back to school but RIGHT AWAY while they are still at ISTE. And, of course, I will encourage them to share this using the #ISTELive hashtag! A few of the highlights that have been shared in the past have included: Google Experiments that can be leveraged to support learning; top Chrome apps and extensions that can be used to provide a more personalized learning environment for all learners; collections of templates that teachers can take back and use with students.
