Adam McMickell recently shared this awesome tech trick at the UCET Conference 2018 in a Google Demo Slam at the University of Utah. 

When you create a chart in Google Sheets and paste the chart into a Google Doc or Slides, the chart can now auto update in Docs and Slides when changes are made to it in Google Sheets. This is an excellent way for students to track progress or collect other data in sheets, while publishing it in Google Docs or Slides.
