Items You May Have Missed...

Give yourself time on your Tech Journal for reading/investigating the info. below...


Save Time by Adding a Table of Contents to a Google Doc - I did this with the Tech Toolbox (click here to see it).


Google Form Self-Grading Quiz Slideshow (you can use DyKnow URL filter "Google Classroom, Docs, Drive, & Moodle" to make it more secure).


Got a new hard drive? (see Mel for any help you need)
When a teacher gets a new harddrive, the teacher will need to add back the following:  


  • lite show
  • google drive
  • grade quick (have to right-click the file and choose run as admin)
  • office 365's onedrive (have to add this as a place in OneNote)
  • onenote notebooks
  • exam view; test gen (ask Dept. ILT Leader where CDs are if you don't know)
  • printers
  • respondus
  • check sound and microphone

By the way, this was made with Snip.  I can envision a lot of ways to use this in teaching, so see me if you want to learn about it.  I do plan on having a class in the near future.  It's SUPER EASY to use. Literally took me 5 minutes to make.  

Ways to use Snip:
  • quick message to students about ANYTHING
  • illustrating a problem on the fly to post on Moodle News Forum which also emails students (it has a whiteboard)
  • instructions for a project to post on Moodle with your narration
  • how to annotate something
  • narrate over an image 
  • Deacon and I got a shot of the gym from Google Earth and used it to draw a map for the basketball game against Carroll (see below)

Computer running slow?  Watch this short video to learn how to use CCleaner to keep your computer healthy and clean.


Looking for something like Kahoot! that you can use for class review?  Try Quizlet Live (simple, short article shared by Kim Foreman).


  • Once you log in (if you don't already have an account, you can log in with Google) try the demo of Quizlet Live that will show you how it works.
  • Ask Melanie if you need help.
