    Great tips!! “I learned everything I know about Google from Michelle Emerson” should be a T-shirt! You got me through the 2019-2020 school closures and remote learning, and now you are continuing to help me be even better! Thank you so, so much! Now…you go make those cookies…I mean….copies!

    The side panel is a great feature I’ve used since available. I now use it with the students to access their Calendar. I work with small groups so the calendar is shared with them and they know when to come to my room. And we use Google Keep as a digital planner with students instead of a paper one. I use it for lesson planning.

    Hi Michelle,
    I just listened to your podcast about google slides! Learned a couple things I didn’t know!!! Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
    I do have a question though…. I’m all in for turning my presentations over to googles slides also (I love google slides and your tutorials got me started)….except one thing that is holding me back is that I can’t write on them!! 🥺
    I use inspiration which allows me to write/highlight on the slide, but I hate that I have to make my presentation on one computer and use a flash drive to transfer it to my other computer and if I need to change something I then have to change it on multiple computers!! Drives me bonkers.
    What do you do with that time where you stop and talk about a skill and write on a slide to express a point, an idea, or show an example???
    I would love some ideas!!
    Thanks for all you do!!!!

With fourth graders I shared files with them that they opened in their emails. Any ideas how to utilize this in younger grades?

    Nice video showing what’s available. I use most of those features but I haven’t used the power list but I can see now how it may be helpful while on the fly. What were all the things in your google keep? Maybe a video about that would be helpful. They look like sticky notes. I have digital stickers that I used last year as full remote teacher. I would like other ideas for using google keep.

  • @cynthiafetterhoff5191

    Michelle, thank you for the video. I have a few questions about sharing files/folders. Prior to the question, know that I have watched the video you shared where you gave step by step directions explaining how you shared your files anticipating your move out of your district. I am extremely organized with my Google Drive and have folders within folders within folders and that is proving tricky, not to mention time consuming, to recreate sharing and copying to my personal Drive. I am also anticipating moving out of my current district and don't want to lose access to my files. My district settings will only allow my personal Drive to be an Editor when I share my district files. Here are my questions: when I share a Google Drive folder from my distrct account (that's filled with a plethora of folders/files) with my personal account (which becomes an Editor), and then my Distrct account is wiped clean, do the shared folders/files stay on my personal account cloud space? Am I still able to access them at the Editor level? Does my access level on my personal account change? Thank you for any added information.

    • @amietedeschi3203
      @amietedeschi3203 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Michelle would probably know better than I do, but my experience would tell me that you might have trouble accessing the files. One of our admin team members recently left, and I took over some of her responsibilities. She shared her files with me (as an Editor) before departing, but during the next school year, they were gone. I think this was due to the school shutting down her account, but it could also be that she deleted the files. I have read that making a copy of the file makes you the owner, but maybe this shared drive idea would be easier.

      That’s what ‘offline’ means - you can access the files even when you don’t have internet access - they are saved to your device. 👍🏾
