Summer PD: Google Courses

6/23/2015

0 Comments

 
Hello, everyone! I know I've said my goodbyes and I thank you all for the well wishes as my husband and I move on to our next adventure, but I do plan to continue this project of blogging at least once a month about using technology in the classroom. It remains a passion of mine and I am happy to share my successes and failures so that we can all do better. As Will Rogers once said, "A [hu]man only learns in two ways--one by reading and the other by association with smarter people." And you know I'd like to keep that association with all of you. :-)

Speaking of doing better, that's what the summer is for, right? It is a time of rest and rejuvenation, but it is also a time for some more PD (professional development). If you're still at a loss of what you can do this summer, let me remind you about the free Google courses. (You can find them here--https://www.google.com/edu/training/get-trained/?utm_referrer= ) These are the courses that are currently available:
  • Classroom
  • Docs Suite
  • Gmail
  • Sites
  • Calendar 
  • Chrome
  • Search 
  • Google Maps
  • YouTube
  • Chromebooks
  • Google Play for Education
  • Android Tablets for Education
  • Implementing Google Apps
  • Digital Citizenship for Educators
  • Slides
  • Sheets
  • Forms
  • Drawings

As you can see, there is a lot to choose from, but they are all free so you could have a very busy summer. Whatever you choose to do, I hope you'll share what you've learned. Happy summer, everyone!

Cheers,
Lesley
