Literally. <br />We often have so many accounts and the videos, images, etc get shared between them all. If you have any personal items on your school Google Account, now is the time to safely transfer them to your personal accounts.</p><p></p><p></p><p></p> <br />Since Google is reducing the amount of storage, those pictures of your new puppy, your baby's first birthday cake, and your daughter’s wedding could be at risk when they start to lessen storage. Educational Technology has you covered! <br /><br /><br />Let’s start on your Google Drive dashboard. We prefer the list view to quickly access and see who owns the file and who you are sharing it with. To view Google Drive in List View click on the List Layton icon on the top right of your drive folders/files.<div style="text-align: left;"><br /><img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-DJpe5MVIO_8cPzeq1ig4IzOSyaboIdrhsVrZD7SY1jbDE7o0N1vJnhkhS5jjMmZOvrx_IoQmzEzwxr60XSVCt163bOMrjSMLy8u7F7oC8MDeTzfMNgkCEEt3m7nnqfIy39G4TZT8JfPgWITRjfMvHo" /><br /><br />List view allows you to see a column with the owner of the file, the date modified, and more options.<br /><br />Once in List View, find the file you want to move and click the three dots on the right side. It is good to check for some things before you move the file. <br /><br /><img height="286" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/UZSU4tsOntDFBSKUHODKwkus39Mup63_U9QVbtfCFWlLl_lPO4rBhLB74WMXDw-evA7AT3gNhVb3y2Q9aMCgWMcAyUDsOpLeEmYHD6ZU4SUv6QhpAk3mzFFgFP0J3ZY5q9zKcxwY4abhcfljjnYJb7k=w655-h286" width="655" /><br /><br /><br /><img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/oPJIq_Nq9E_cGA-F2GVAk7ptNOrPoVcKFFxPv3SxGLdNFOHIQJkjskcI8ygexX9L8cbI-_NJqF6tymiX6tMHkK3iXXHlys1KkBHyPWRqifV8fezNw5dOPMs82flcep1offRuC7H-_hCv2h2L1NE9m4s" /><br /><br /><br />Select View Details from the menu that pops up after clicking the three vertical dots. In the details it highlights who has access.<br /><br /><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/teH5IwnV0fb375fdC47UME_cfEsyqhJfkXKG-9kzJa9_ytKVcO33XOtHtQuWRlswCM4dv0wDL-pOUyH7vvIrakptBkL9VSFBVChKIZ9X3CgHosH4NdPjgueMtNsnGLjRR3bRwfMx3By8VS2RdCwsd44" /><br /><br /><br />You can note who has access to the file and also manage the access in case you want to transfer ownership or remove access before you move the file out of your professional Google Drive. <br /><br /><br />You have many options where to copy your personal documents, pictures, videos, and files to. You can download them to a personal Google Account, a flash drive, external hard drive, another cloud storage and more. In order for this to be a smooth transition, an easy way to move all files from your work device and work Google Drive to your personal storage is to create a folder on your computer desktop.<br /><br /><br />On many devices you can right click on the desktop and select “New Folder”. I would name it something along the lines of “Google Drive Personal Files” or something you will be able to easily locate and know the contents when moved to the other storage space. <br /><br /><br />Chrome allows you to designate where the files are saved when you click “Download” in Google Drive. On the top right of Google Chrome, click on the 3 vertical dots.<br /><br /><br /><img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/MhBqUCbBIUvTd8GwcX405KJtB1aWG_fd0ruJcmOR6-sNRRwAgSvBR4xg1nwGajIud2XUKJf_U-p1WxRt1cVa-KLTRMC5XkZkp8YM4MBKVOjvs1huPu7GgMkJsKxbkjgxrj_VU2fNOcVgHdGKdmFVk5s" /><br /><br /><br />Choose Settings from the menu that appears.<br /><br /><br /><img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/iWlgEz_TLQc5cPvr5qGssyx-gjHMfQq6FrDSMxmSt_t8aTriIh4Y2a06RueC0de4RADIc-NoVCt8u0Unn82aOFXuhVu601PpEaxy45ov7NzJbyr6Yg_oDsxQroQlZJ1KXbX4hLC1N2aZqjeoaYrtlPw" /><br /><br /><br />On the left choose Downloads. <br /><br /><img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/CAqXeAiQfNQ1ATM-sm1oRuNvejyPxJUZJJzUCiJjh8tXqD96zcR3PJXZOUI2PfWnrsWYdmdOKhaaO2IBa0wyDG1dQ-WslE_UyckegVgK7jIx9LlJng0QUiSijYJ90pozHqFTr-vHNg8QuzzIZ8jFYUk" /><br /><br /><br />Choose a location to save to and toggle on “Ask where to save each file before downloading.”<br /><br /><br /><img height="161" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/9V6dEWATXSd1C-jwOHx7SYL4B8K4qm6Ta93eTEaMkbLmZ06tEEUW0N50tHA46cLvPvaAk-y3so_f5z37wr8KagH25FWP0J088KrUSYzA9aU5XLC3Wwy4MrBoGe0oQB6vCKMtfqXfDbkNVO0XuJm_8Do=w639-h161" width="639" /><br /><br /><br />Back in Google Drive, RIGHT click the name of the file, photo, etc. and select “Download”.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"> <img src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/uuEGqIoZzWdy3sQv1HMM8PI-nWiFMzwaL3Qj9PmKEZtJsH1N_VNoAZjJaz15cmLY70TGtGdiJIBHBuE2ZX60usei9kD-j1_Nq0Pkm8qzLoRbT7sn_lkF-Oozxefg0NEyQAAuOVmpduuONHsu-WJ7znI" /><br /><br /><br />Choose the folder on your desktop you created for this purpose. When you are finished saving all personal files to the folder on your desktop, upload the folder to your personal Google Drive or other storage account.<br /><br /><br />Now you have done the one thing we all strive to do, keep work and personal life separate!

Students have the power of technology in their hands on a daily basis, how do we as educators use this tool to make our instruction more powerful and create future ready students?</p><p></p><img height="384" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/vfHgBC36hQuT9_qQHxRwFbWhQROPN0RVqCLNtRMtPH1qubLGhUAv-gPwmp8Zd1hcToQwJiJla_UCMBVHtVjc_sT8AiMrivm4rQO0vmvvM8CwOGs1v7NMXezTcdy45gpcxVDlYxkNu77bVgZE7zcTna0=w682-h384" width="682" /><br /><br /><br />My favorite visual of SAMR is ordering Starbucks using the SAMR ladder. I substituted my home made coffee with a roasted from beans freshly ground in a Starbucks cup. Then I leveled up to augment my coffee by adding ice, cream and sweetener. I then modified my coffee with whipped cream, caramel syrup and maybe an extra shot of espresso. Finally, I completely redefined my coffee with a Frappuccino using almond milk with an extra shot of espresso, extra pumps of vanilla, whipped cream, and pure yummy.<br /><br />SAMR was the brainchild of Ruben R. Puentedura, Ph.D. The world was in need of a framework that allowed educators to take the amazing instruction they provide daily and purposefully integrate technology to promote student engagement, and he provided a framework that works like a ladder for technology integration. The beauty of it is you do not have to always get to the top of the ladder, you just have to find the right step for your lesson and your students.<br /><h4 style="text-align: left;">What is SAMR?</h4>SAMR stands for Substitution, Augmentation, Modification, and Redefinition. Teachers can start at the first level with Substitution and work up to the Redefinition stage.<br /><br /><img height="374" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/s1BPCvAIRLmRORionvlTQie6TvQlEyLmZYIiIG2d87NBdhMe19_wHocxu_77Mk2PFkQ1y6jurnMnDePIxjyCp5l771Ax7Ip_DPzRq3S4oLxsDNBlllL7dgwl4lX2g5riV7ovedNzne_jAtyMSfGpkzY=w664-h374" width="664" /><br /><br /><br /><h4 style="text-align: left;">Substitution:</h4>This level encourages teachers to simply substitute something they did with paper and pencil with a basic application like word processing. For example, instead of students writing with a pencil on notebook paper, have them type their essay in a word processing application on their device. Instead of using a whiteboard and expo marker, have students use an online whiteboard application. <br /><br /><img height="328" src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/BNBJHMGNwDjYYKwkUA_R-K0iCofWkPdsAT_nMXF7iIyF8fZthjC-9yFkKBATnKGE_Uv-x10q0qSrct1B4nS9jAZcO2cv-mODHNZZDOXomR610E5BLmK9nCzQEHYTKmQROeyR4nqzl_IHu5ae8soisvo=w654-h328" width="654" /><br /><h4 style="text-align: left;">Augmentation:</h4>The next step calls for the technology substituted to provide a valuable and functional change. What can you do now with this word processing application you could not do with the pencil and notebook paper? Many word processing applications allow for voice dictation, spell checking features, exploring for quotes, etc. You not only made the substitution, but the use of technology allows the students the ability to do something they could not previously do as easily without technology. <br /><br /><img height="327" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/LOi8ViIt0w_DaHyuWECwgkdLhLzJho44tkaIQWm_fC1eUuF3WeMTTnKwU9jnj8oR1ryN645atkn06ectr4TPEBgDKYhr5kP3lAjmzy7Jq0MIpo-4C_CtKLu2yTSi-ao75CjCr93qSyDW4G03trekdw8=w653-h327" width="653" /><br /><h4 style="text-align: left;">Modification:</h4>Level up the technology integration to the next level of modification by redesigning the lesson based on the features of the applications or technology that we did not have previously without it. The use of multimedia, videos, images. Students can gather information from websites across the globe with varying perspectives. They then use that information to create visual creative media to show their process and the learning. Then they can showcase their learning on another platform for viewing. <br /><br /><img height="332" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/wy0glN62mn3OOD1SN4Hm3wKmJWnMMgp5bHls3f3oeRszmBQo0eN-K_dD2MNK-CmPdJPRE4yVoXJ7FWardfPpV0tBP0hagaav0tXmYtwqWM-NB46wnH27WE3vBz16kZd7WJw94P20o_XXAO__4MkV2rA=w664-h332" width="664" /><br /><h4 style="text-align: left;">Redefinition:</h4>The final level of SAMR calls for technology to take lessons and students beyond where they previously were able to go. Students can now collaborate within applications to work together in the classroom, across the district as well as across the world. Students can explore and extend their learning beyond the classroom and produce products that showcase their learning in a multitude of ways from one device. <br /><br /><br /><img height="330" src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/vKEGj9Q2WSODzX0SBUVRB5-lnIFqvq8rAUkEA6qtJ-jPX5ZZ1Zyb5ImH6QJAL28nohUJU849FO9PgV4b1DkA59WAb76If2080Hp8UyF4xqB_fvhTjxnYX3JXpfTTNa-nE17dfrFDsZTZhwXPXAcYvlU=w659-h330" width="659" /><br /><br />Technology is a tool we as educators can use to take our lessons beyond pencil and paper and the walls of our classrooms. When purposefully integrated into the curriculum and robust pedagogical practices we already are experts in, there is no limit to what students (and teachers) can do. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Misty Sheahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16126634460612392855noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-835917562051543309.post-40134589871277627062023-02-09T05:30:00.037-06:002023-02-09T05:30:00.194-06:00Canvas: the Perfect Match! ❤️<p></p><div style="text-align: center;"> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjs8TZgTVo8MEju43llXPVyZyZv0OcmvhlWJkK-mMXP6nMhbdR9r18FvTHdRtfGU1x4Enw-cqljV3S3Tn2C7C-D5p5YGi3aWVYL4HbykQvnkK-I_njsMC2etJ5uhOIUG39Y9aQo-Txzi6gUujE2P_SbpL26np3aklI26RWmTRZ9oVLa48_n_Mn0mt_u/s1080/Untitled%20design.gif" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjs8TZgTVo8MEju43llXPVyZyZv0OcmvhlWJkK-mMXP6nMhbdR9r18FvTHdRtfGU1x4Enw-cqljV3S3Tn2C7C-D5p5YGi3aWVYL4HbykQvnkK-I_njsMC2etJ5uhOIUG39Y9aQo-Txzi6gUujE2P_SbpL26np3aklI26RWmTRZ9oVLa48_n_Mn0mt_u/w400-h400/Untitled%20design.gif" width="400" /></a></div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Valentine's Day is next week and if you need a steady, dependable Valentine, may we suggest Canvas?

Zoom is an amazing virtual platform and their company offered free connection for the pandemic and beyond. <p></p><p></p>However, Zoom has returned to providing unlimited meeting times for paying customers. Free accounts are limited to 40 minutes. If this fits your needs, great - 😍 - we still love Zoom!<p></p><p>It's possible though that you need longer meeting times and are simply having your participants rejoin the Zoom link over and over. If this is not optimal for your situation, you have a solution in Keller ISD. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfFxobNy4gL8dSVV6PJrjcRm80JJqrN3F4JIaZrQEl-Jzdg5ac1wTnjxkgoiLBv9t6c1l8DGogLgYxcXgFJyTeyLAR5zdhzFjYufOVl8tr0xs9nyl_l_AewA5-yf6kSfL1MGGcDGw377SeMNemVN3pJl_WvgZgJ7dZ0ktS2X94ZONV105T01y7-8WV/s134/download.jpeg" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="125" data-original-width="134" height="125" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfFxobNy4gL8dSVV6PJrjcRm80JJqrN3F4JIaZrQEl-Jzdg5ac1wTnjxkgoiLBv9t6c1l8DGogLgYxcXgFJyTeyLAR5zdhzFjYufOVl8tr0xs9nyl_l_AewA5-yf6kSfL1MGGcDGw377SeMNemVN3pJl_WvgZgJ7dZ0ktS2X94ZONV105T01y7-8WV/s1600/download.jpeg" width="134" /></a></div><p></p><p></p>It's Microsoft Teams - 🤩.

You have 62 tabs open on your device at any given time in 5-10 different Chrome windows. Yes, tab hoarder, I'm talking to you. </div></span></div><p></p><p>In fact, before I started writing this blog post, I pointedly closed every extra tab I had open just to make myself feel organized and accomplished. I don't know about you, but I struggle with closing tabs when switching from project to project... I just want to make sure I don't 'lose' anything or that I can 'pick back up' exactly where I left off when I return to that project. </p><p>You <i><b>NEED</b></i> a way to keep tabs on your tabs and Google has one for you! <b>Tab Group</b>s is what you are missing. </p><p><b>Tab Groups </b>let you 'group' multiple tabs together using name and color customization. These groups can be collapsed to simplify your Chrome window and help you focus on whatever task is at hand. Then when it's time to switch projects, you can simply collapse one group and open a new set keep up the productivity.</p><p>Here's how:</p><p>1️⃣. Right-click on a tab and choose <b><i>Add Tab to New Group</i></b>.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAOLpDsloApANjcSn3SKZ47XIhYdqrdGQfOdeQfPkjBe2uzSPdzHmF6bf81gh5lddF1p9TiffW_EVWUDlUghidrgfttzR2anqAIVhnjBZ6gP6Ve7AUQnlUo8fVbDmMcY3h5h-Jzx6pk0QtbL0niWApdH2BO6OjG3yP2Sla0ggf24kw8dFTk8zbTXSn/s324/Screen%20Shot%202022-10-31%20at%202.19.22%20PM.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="324" data-original-width="321" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAOLpDsloApANjcSn3SKZ47XIhYdqrdGQfOdeQfPkjBe2uzSPdzHmF6bf81gh5lddF1p9TiffW_EVWUDlUghidrgfttzR2anqAIVhnjBZ6gP6Ve7AUQnlUo8fVbDmMcY3h5h-Jzx6pk0QtbL0niWApdH2BO6OjG3yP2Sla0ggf24kw8dFTk8zbTXSn/s320/Screen%20Shot%202022-10-31%20at%202.19.22%20PM.png" width="317" /></a></div><p>3️⃣.

The pandemic and pandemic learning left so many students struggling and behind academically, socially, and emotionally. One struggle is the fear students have to speak up. The fear of having the answer wrong, someone making fun of them, or they feel they have nothing to contribute has created a silence reverberating through our classrooms. Let's not go backwards! We had made so much growth with the explosion of applications and web tools that made instruction engaging and fun for students. Those tools are still out there! Let’s use them to ReEngage our students using the newly branded FLIP (previously known as Flipgrid)</p><div style="text-align: center;"><img height="330" src="https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/1NqO91I8wzMdN5g5dYARoIWHuoJuGptY1EmnFsBeAbtiSG1XFOBTN6fgDcqh1PHTIh9rrb5KC0sR2v2rWdZlIxrOY8GKKWZYx3eUcmtRoTqRBkB1CN6hRZeESTh3z_PYjzFwPg1PwWihJb_nb8Qa2U5_IMHuRYLG16q1N4KhJTspZ9vNMdZPahw7hQ=w269-h330" width="269" /></div><br /><br /><br />You can sign into FLIP with your SSO with Microsoft, Google, and Apple, or you can sign in with an email address. <br /><br /><br />Logged in you will see your dashboard with any groups or flips you have previously created.

While you sift through the remaining tasks for the school year, you may want to begin maintenance on that Google <a href="https://drive.google.com/" target="_blank">DRIVE</a> Beast! No one ever said cleaning it out was going to be fun. BUT, it will be a great way to begin the next school year organized and ready to go. (You will thank us later!)</p><p>Where to even start? Here are a few ways to make this process a tiny bit less painful:</p><p>1️⃣ Open Drive and tackle 'orphaned' files first. Try organizing 10-15 of these files at a time so that the process does not overwhelm you. Give each file a home within a folder or if needed, create a new folder for that topic. In addition, delete all of the empty Untitled documents that never got put in the trash!</p><p><i>We love the quick tip of starting a file with docs.new, slides.new, sheets.new, etc., but this often leads to lots of 'orphaned' files. Try to be deliberate in starting a file where it belongs OR moving a file after its creation by using File > Move to.</i></p><p style="text-align: center;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnLP_Dq1-TKv1RSU-_vbKeBbTRc0Pv8u9HQej3DnZpsQ59Wu2O5bGda6eJH5u23KLncYSSsQKKfvbdySKRxyw1yiFg6yNU030Bxh_eSHalk-IPevSQRzq9XFYcale0KBt0eM68dqKnV-nDTIOadiXNaVbxvlk0kNv10K6DYG1UXCE6fW8gjn9Yn-WH/s516/Screen%20Shot%202022-05-17%20at%201.31.22%20PM.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="516" data-original-width="446" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjnLP_Dq1-TKv1RSU-_vbKeBbTRc0Pv8u9HQej3DnZpsQ59Wu2O5bGda6eJH5u23KLncYSSsQKKfvbdySKRxyw1yiFg6yNU030Bxh_eSHalk-IPevSQRzq9XFYcale0KBt0eM68dqKnV-nDTIOadiXNaVbxvlk0kNv10K6DYG1UXCE6fW8gjn9Yn-WH/s320/Screen%20Shot%202022-05-17%20at%201.31.22%20PM.png" width="277" /></a></div><i><br /></i><p></p><p>2️⃣ Now that every file has a folder, it's time to think about your organization structure. Think about the way you teach? Do you organize by unit? By grading period? By Topic? Using this same thought process will probably serve you well with folder organization. We recommend top-level folders that work for you to quickly and easily locate what you need during the school year. Too many top-level folders and you will spend all of your time searching. Too few and you will always be clicking deep into resources. Only you can figure out what works best for your style.</p><p><i>Consider numbering your folders or adding an emoji at the beginning of a folder name so that ones you use most often rise to the top. You can also color code folders for quick visual recognition. Specific colors may have particular meaning to your resources. </i></p><p style="text-align: center;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0PDfFTq_yENQWojz17vB0O6A4-k9eyKvHWkda4Ed_b1KlBQOp0Fkx1v2sApdFX1BL-cjnPx2aQk6x0gxEuZNCm4lAfgFu8hHTnUGiztlnT9bPGRVgOcon1kC0AWoZzl36Y2cSUbyHR6zANh-RCOCceHnZwCp4HwU1zcb00GaCmiB9a1L3f_F_zYMs/s747/Screen%20Shot%202022-05-17%20at%201.52.57%20PM.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="505" data-original-width="747" height="270" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0PDfFTq_yENQWojz17vB0O6A4-k9eyKvHWkda4Ed_b1KlBQOp0Fkx1v2sApdFX1BL-cjnPx2aQk6x0gxEuZNCm4lAfgFu8hHTnUGiztlnT9bPGRVgOcon1kC0AWoZzl36Y2cSUbyHR6zANh-RCOCceHnZwCp4HwU1zcb00GaCmiB9a1L3f_F_zYMs/w400-h270/Screen%20Shot%202022-05-17%20at%201.52.57%20PM.png" width="400" /></a></div><i><br /></i><p></p><p>3️⃣ Add a description to your folders.

Everyone will always have access AND you won't have to worry if a teammate resigns.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikv7mlGT8BjafVQXCQgbQ9gJXLe32E9LOdgjWM5JtnrVDFIrI2mUTz4CkqRBB4etS590tGjq_7EXT3IIv8h8D9ZOpG4wlhUBMNi8kDU1xr6pFR9VMn1PIJav6QS6ogitG5mlUfeYAUu8S1PhXCFYEfugfxRb9jFsCF01FLV-7CqknL9elrW63j5iW-/s795/Screen%20Shot%202022-05-18%20at%202.26.02%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="363" data-original-width="795" height="183" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEikv7mlGT8BjafVQXCQgbQ9gJXLe32E9LOdgjWM5JtnrVDFIrI2mUTz4CkqRBB4etS590tGjq_7EXT3IIv8h8D9ZOpG4wlhUBMNi8kDU1xr6pFR9VMn1PIJav6QS6ogitG5mlUfeYAUu8S1PhXCFYEfugfxRb9jFsCF01FLV-7CqknL9elrW63j5iW-/w400-h183/Screen%20Shot%202022-05-18%20at%202.26.02%20PM.png" width="400" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">5️⃣ Need to easily remove duplicate files?
