In a recent #tlap chat, #edtech and #GoogleEDU guru Eric Curts blew us all away with tons of ways to use Google Docs, Google Drawings, Google Sheets, and Google Slides in wildly creative ways in the classroom. In addition, many others shared their powerful ideas, as well. We curated Eric's responses and a few others for each question and wanted to share it with you below.
We just recently published Eric's incredible book, Control Alt Achieve: Rebooting Your Classroom with Creative Google Projects... and the reception and feedback has been amazing! Eric's blog has been a go-to resource for years, and now you can have his practical, ready to drop right into your classroom ideas in a beautiful book with tons of images and color throughout. It is gorgeous! More importantly, whether next year is in person, remote, or blended...you will be SET! Go HERE to grab your copy!
