TCC 5-3 New Tech Tips in Google Drive

A wonderful source for Google Classroom tips is Alice Keeler. (See her Teacher Tech in my blog roll at right.)  I have shared lots of her links in the Cindy’s Links articles. She is a Google Educator and is very skilled at producing the formulas and succinct tutorials for using Google well. Her site doesn’t seem to have a categories list, but her post titles do categorize them as:  Google Classroom, Google Drive, Google Sheets, etc.
Google Classroom: Sharing the Classroom Folder, her post for  January 28 is about connecting your Google Classroom folder with your personal Drive account. One of the ideas is that this allows a parent to be included in their child’s “portfolio” folder since that isn’t a feature of Classroom.
My emphasis here will be on the tips she offers for Google Drive. Check
Cindy’s Links in previous issues for some other  recommendations.
Try these:
Google Forms: Creating a Rubric, Google Sheets: Create Tabs Quickly, Getting Started with Google Draw, Google Docs: Mark as GradedGoogle Sheets: Dopy a Template for Each Student,
And I haven’t left January, 2015, yet...
Enjoy!
