Kelsi's Corner - April Tech Tip
Posted by Kelsi Wilcox Boyles on 4/19/2016There's no doubt about it...I love Google Apps for Education!
This past year (the first year of RIU#6's Google Apps for Education initiative) I've been able to share this love with many of you during in-service days, small group sessions, and some 1:1 coaching. Some staff members have dived right in finding things they love, too. Several staff members are testing the Google waters, and others are wading nearby for additional information. Well - here's the additional information! No matter where you are in the GAFE initiative, I would encourage all of you to finish out the school year by watching these two videos and taking the Google Docs and Drive 21 Day Challenge!** CLICK HERE FOR THE FULL VERSION OF THE APRIL TECH TIP **
