Out dated. Very basic. Very little new information. Sounded more like an add for Google than how to use these tools or implement them in my class to differentiate instruction.

It was good, but I would have liked a little more elaboration on some of the apps.
Nianna – VALLEY VIEW ISD PHARR – REGION 01 (verified owner) –
The beginning of this video is a little outdated. I think you could update this and have better viewing of the different forms/websites available to teachers. It’s not a very visual presentation when all the questions ask you to reflect on visuals.
Sydney – MIDWAY ISD – WOODWAY (verified owner) –
Much of this presentation was explaining Google Drive at a very basic level. Once new ideas were introduced, the explanations were not helpful in becoming familiar with them. Because the online training did not allow me to see his screen, I was not able to understand what the sites/apps could actually do. I will need to do a lot of my own exploring.
