EdTechTeam: Rethinking Google Drive on the iPad - 3 views

"The iPad is well-known as an amazing creation tool, but with Google Drive's "Open-In" feature on the iOS platform - the iPad has quickly become a collaboration device extraordinaire. Google Drive is best known for apps like Docs and Slides, and these are great platforms for students to work collaboratively on documents and presentations. However, Google Drive has one under-used feature that offers a secret collaborative power . This hidden power of Google Drive sits in the layers of the "i" button."

EdTechTeam: The How (and Why) It's Time to Create Digital Portfolios - 5 views
-
"Digital Student Portfolios are becoming more important now than ever! Students are creating and remixing information like never before - and where is all that amazing work going? At my old school it was wiped off the devices at the end of the year - a heart-wrenching idea that I was personally against. This is why we need to publish student work in one place and let it serve as a home of student reflection, and a become a destination to unleash student pride and curiosity. There are many reasons to begin the journey to digital portfolios - here are just a few."

"I like doing worksheets better than using the iPads because I don't have to think as much."
-
"On the iPads, I have to show my work, explain my thinking and make sure it is my best work because someone other than you might see it on my blog or on Twitter."
-
Using the iPads leads to a higher level of understanding because students have to explain their thinking with pictures, numbers, words AND their voice. If you use social media in your classroom like we do, it leads to higher quality work because there is a larger audience that may see the student's work.

"I do not use a lot of worksheets in my math program. So much so, that last week, I gave a worksheet during math to my grade 2 students to do and one of my students cheered. CHEERED! For a worksheet! I asked the child in my class why she cheered. I figured that she would have responded with, "I like worksheets." If she had answered that way, I would have been fine with that. I believe that we all have our own learning preferences and some children enjoy doing worksheets. However I would never have anticipated what she said to me. She responded with, "I like doing worksheets better than using the iPads because I don't have to think as much." "

"One perk of working in so many schools across the world is seeing the inventive ways teachers are creating inspiring learning environments for their students. Seeing these unique and thoughtful designs has given us an idea: Create a challenge for the community to share the inspiring spaces they've curated. Share and gain ideas from fellow teachers and you'll be automatically entered to win sweet prizes each week until December 11th!"
