"One of the most common questions I receive is about how to become a Google Certified Trainer. So I have put together an infographic detailing the five steps to becoming a Google for Education Certified Trainer. I have been a Google Certified Trainer for a couple years, and it was a game-changer for my career. I have also delivered a face-to-face Google Certification Boot Camps, a prep course to prepare educators to pass the exams and apply for certification. I have helped several hundred educators across the U.S. reach their goal of becoming a Google Certified Trainer. But that's not enough! I want to help everyone reach their goal of becoming a Google Certified Trainer. So to kick things off, I have put together this infographic detailing the five-step process."

educational banking website designed for elementary school students. I discovered Bank Jr. through Donna Murray's excellent blog. Bank Jr. is an interactive website on which students can learn the in's and out's of banking. Bank Jr. has a glossary of terms, a help center, and savings wizards.

Yesterday, Common Craft released a new video that explains borrowing money in plain English. As always, Common Craft does an excellent job of explaining what can be a complex topic in a very easy to understand form. The video is embedded below in Dot Sub form.
