Tool 6

Today we explored Today's Meet as a group and discussed how it could be used in the classroom. Basically it is just another way for students to respond as a group if they work together or individually.  It could make responding more engaging and hold the students accountable.  Most of us have seen this used in staff developments. Our discussion helped me to understand "back channeling" and "Hashtags" a little better as we compared this to other options like this.

The new Google Education that came out yesterday looks awesome! Lots to explore there. There are many, many lesson plans that use all kinds of different Google Apps. I used Google Forms today to respond to survey for 2012-2013 planning. Google is into everything!
