Google Forms: By Anna Bishop

I love Google! One of my favorite ways is to use Google Quizzes which is a step off of Google Forms. Google Forms does all the assessment work for you!

There is no paper, the kids enjoy it more, and it is quick and easy. The students don't even have to have google accounts to do the forms!! They just need a computer and your link!

Then I can ask them why they got out of the test/quiz. Now with this setting you will have...

They will range in complexity and purpose, but I promise to only send you ideas that I think are worth your time. This week’s tip comes from the blog The Techie Teacher and involves using an iPad stylus on your computer trackpad. I played around with it last night and found that it was very helpful when it comes to drawing or writing a signature on the computer. http://www.thetechieteacher.net/2017/08/using-stylus-pen-on-computer-trackpad.html Using a Stylus Pen on a Computer Trackpad A few weeks ago I learned that stylus pens also work on computer trackpads. How did I not know this? As soon as I made this discovery, I grabbed my 99 cent iPad stylus pen, opened Google Autodraw and tested it out on both my MacBook and Chromebook. It worked like a charm!
