Soft Technology

If your workplace is like every one I've ever seen, about 98% of people have a drawer and a half full of cables that either go to nothing or that go to nothing they still have or that go to nothing they know they have; meanwhile in the technology department, thousands of dollars is spent to replace those cables languishing in drawers. Let's solve the problem! Let's make October Cable Collection Month! Here are some images/slides/materials to get you going. Let me know if you're going to use this in your neck of the woods!

As you may have heard, Google Apps for Education recently released Google Classroom. While it is NOT a Learning Management System (LMS), it does simplify procedures for teachers sharing files with students. Most notably, it automatically creates a copy of a specified file from Google Drive for each student within an organizational structure then allows students to "turn in" those files virtually, which changes the permissions of the file from student-owned back to teacher-owned. Students retain view rights. If you're looking for a tool to simplify and save time when using Google Apps for Education with your students, it's arrived! Hope you enjoy this hastily made video. Please leave comments if you have questions, and I'll do my best to get back to you.
