🦃 November's Featured Resources 🦃

Goblin Tools

Goblin Tools was created to simplify tasks that may seem overwhelming to some people. Goblin's featured tools are: Magic ToDo, Formalizer, Judge, Estimator, Compiler, and Chef. Try out the Compiler tool by copying and pasting the below explanation of Interactive Video Quesions ↘️ into the space where Compiler asks for your braindump. After you click Turn into tasks, you'll be amazed at how quickly it turned the paragraph into a bulleted/ chronological list of tasks to complete 🤯. Next, try the Formilizer tool. Paste the same explanation of Interactive Video Questions ↘️ into the Formilizer and select a new tone in the dropdown menu next to "Make my text." I tried "More passionate," for a good laugh - you should too 😂. The Judge tool helps readers judge what tone a passage was written in. Estimator will guess a time frame or activity duration for a description that has been pasted in. Chef will suggest a recipe based on the ingredients you have available.

🎬Google Classroom Interactive Video Questions

Have you tried Google Classroom's new interactive video feature? Teachers can now add questions to YouTube videos when attached to a Google Classroom assignment! First, attach a YouTube video in a new Assignment. Click on points in the video timeline where you want to insert questions and click "➕Add." Create your own multiple-choice, checkbox, or short-answer video questions. When creating multiple choice questions you'll be able to select a correct answer choice and choose to shuffle the order of the answers students will see. Some videos will come with AI suggested questions based on the video transcript.

PRO TIP: Click the three-dot menu next to a YouTube video description. Select "Show transcript." Copy and paste the video transcript into an AI Question generator like QuestionWell for ready-to-use multiple choice video questions.

🚨 New AI Feature Alert!

✨ Magic Padlet ✨

Our premium district Padlet accounts include access to Magic Padlet! Magic Padlet uses the power of generative AI to create a new Padlet based on your description. You can ask it to create lists, timelines, maps, and explorations of almost any topic you can think of. Think of the Magic Padlet as a rough draft for you to tweak and add to. Try commands like: "Create a map Padlet that showcases the 6 most visited national parks in the US" or "Create a list of non-fictional books my middle school students could read to learn more about the ancient Rome."
