The Google-verse of Educational Tools
The Google universe can be frustrating and confusing place to navigate. New tools pop up daily; tools that were free one day are not the next, some tools stand alone, while others interact with non-Google tools. The objective of this site is to present an overview of Google tools. Links are provided to websites and symbaloos where you can learn more about the tools of the Google-verse and how to use them.
After exploring the resources on this site, please take the survey so that I can tailor the March 25 workshop to meet your needs and interests -- SURVEY LINK.
Kathy Schrock has created a listing of Google tools and how they support Bloom's Taxonomy (image below). Her "Guide to Everything" website includes a wealth of information on everything digital for teachers -- http://www.schrockguide.net/
Reminder -- Be a critical consumer and work smarter, not harder. It's important to catalog tools you frequently use for easy access, but rely on the internet community. There are colleagues around the world who have spent a great deal of time and effort to share their knowledge and resources. Take them up on the offer! !
Example: I have my own symbaloo of frequently used tools, but other people have created symbaloos that feature a variety of Google Tools and how to use them -- see below for the ones that have a strong following or have been recently updated or created.
