Now that you have the essentials.....

Thank you to everyone for all of your participation, support, and enthusiasm during the Google Essentials training on Tuesday.  We are so lucky to have so many talented presenters who were willing to give their time and energy to share their love for Google with us.  It was also so powerful to know that we were all receiving a strong foundation in the essentials of Google at the same time.

So, now that we all have the essentials, where do we go from here?  Introducing, Tech Essentials.

Tech Essentials is our new district website, focusing on technology integration.  It will provide you with links to move yourself forward in your tech skills.  The links on the front page represent the 4 Cs, one of our goals for effective technology integration with students.  Click into each link to find tech integration tools you can use with your students.  

The pages listed horizontally across the top include links to tutorials for Google Apps for Education as well as Chromebooks.  

As much as I love Google, I understand that change is hard and there are bound to be bumps in the road as we move our resources from our network drives to our Google Drives.  I hope this site is helpful to you.  If you have any ideas for tutorials you would like me to add to the site, please e-mail me at ksauber@wcusd200.org and I will be happy to add them.  I hope you enjoy using the new tips, tricks, and tools that you learned in your Google training yesterday.  But most of all, I hope you enjoy your journey.  Google isn't about becoming an expert.  It's about learning, creating, collaborating, and thinking in new and different ways.  Let the fun begin!  :)
