It easily and quickly creates split screen modes (2, 3, 4. . .screens) which allows for ease in working on a document while doing research without having to switch windows constantly.

I connect my Google Voice to my Hangouts so I can use Hangouts withing my Gmail.

It is important to show the kids how to use them, when and where to use them and to think critically when they use these apps!!! They are here to stay and are getting better as tech and AI advances are being made! Would love to see a post on this at some point?? I’m sure you have tons of ideas!!

It combines a Slides presentation with Google Earth locations and allows for students or teachers to add links, videos, and photos to the tour. Because Tour Builder uses Google Earth, it also allows users to use Street View throughout the tour. I’ve used it with students to teach habitats, ecosystems, and geography, but the possibilities are endless!
