Using technology as a strategic partner in teaching and learning.

Need some help with a Google app?

It's easy to just use Google to Google help about an app right? Except that some of the articles you find will be outdated, asking you to look for menu items that may no longer exist after the last update. Rather than searching the whole Internet for help, go straight to Google Help Forum for the most current support: Google Help

How to...

- - GSuite Learning Center - use this forum to search on an issue you might be having with a particular app or Google service.
  - Instructional Tech Talk - dedicated to providing new and consistent information about instructional technology, with a How to... style of presentation.
  - 7 sites that vet digital learning tools
