"QR Wild® scavenger hunt games are perfect for trade shows, conferences and educators! Your audience scans trackable QR Codes placed at physical locations that you'd like them to visit. As the game pieces are scanned the player earns points and unlocks "badges" while spreading the word by sharing progress on their social networks. You can even display a scoreboard online or at an event!"
Slipp offers a free mobile-first landing platform, that quickly turns mobile traffic into consumer action. With almost half of web traffic coming from mobile devices, Slipp's mobile-first landing experiences are the quickest and simplest way to drive more consumer conversions.
Slipps can be used with ads and social postings to promote products, services, events, content, downloads, and much more. Slipps combine a consumer action (call, view, rsvp, calendar, download, buy) with content slides that are quick to create, give dramatic engagement levels on mobile, and drive higher conversions. They can be stand-alone or overlaid on shared content.
"Google has made it possible for Calendar users to easily create to-dos using Reminders. Before, you were only able to create events or entries to remind you to do things but these 'reminders' were not always stable and they 'come and go'. With new Reminders feature, you can create and track your to-dos over time until they are performed. Undone Reminders will always appear at the top of your Calendar till you swipe them away."
"The interactive Printing Press is designed to assist students in creating newspapers, brochures, and flyers. Teachers and students can choose from several templates to publish class newspapers, informational brochures, and flyers announcing class events. Text added to the templates can be modified using a simple WYSIWYG editor, which allows students to choose text features, such as font size and color. Documentation for the Printing Press includes instructions for using the tool. Customized versions of the tool, which include additional instructions and more focused choices, are included with some lessons. A basic planning sheet is available to help students gather ideas before working on this interactive tool."
Google Tour Builder allows users to tell stories using Google maps, images, videos, and text. It is a fantastic tool for students to use to show what they know about different topics. Maybe students are summarizing the chapters of a book and each placemark represents a different chapter. Or perhaps students create a tour to share summaries of current events happening around the world.
