Chromebooks are small but mighty. On their own they deliver loads of learning power. Add some key Google Chromebook accessories and the benefits multiply. School-issued Chromebooks often come bare-bones. Amping them up with accessories can help students get their work done more quickly. More comfortably. And with greater enthusiasm. When homework time is over, great Google Chromebook accessories can deliver better downtime too. Not a student but still love your Chromebook? These Google Chromebook accessories are also for you. Google Chromebook Accessory No. 1 USB-C adapter Yes, a humble dongle tops the list of hot Google Chromebook accessories. Why? Because many Chromebook ports aren’t compatible with many popular Chromebook accessories. Chromebooks are smaller, lighter and cheaper than traditional laptops. Which usually means they have fewer and smaller ports. Today’s newest Chromebooks are outfitted with small, USB-C ports. They’re the 1/3-inch or so ... [Learn More]

By teacher guest blogger Kathryn Rose It’s not an exaggeration to say that educational professionals have been inundated with new technology over the past three years. And when I say inundated, I mean literally up to their elbows in computer cords and power banks at times. But what could anyone do? It was essential. During the first half of 2020, school could only continue if students had laptops and WiFi access. Parents needed carefully coordinated apps to make sure their students didn’t miss assignments or lectures. Everything needed to be connected and working for the basic functions of a school environment to hobble along. We have some distance now. Schools and camps have been operating in person, albeit with different restrictions and rules at times, and the speedy influx of virtual and distance learning tools has left behind some clear victors. In fact, I believe there will be a time in the not-so-distant future where teachers will not be able to imagine do... [Learn More]

Remember the days when field trips were a “really big deal”? Planning with the chosen site, endless collection of permission slips, coordination of chaperones, a lost day of instruction, and the stress of taking large groups of students off campus? Well, times have changed. Thanks to technology, amazing virtual field trips are now plentiful – and without the headaches and hassles. For teachers, they make a perfect addition to your curriculum. Virtual field trips can take students to just about anywhere in the world for a few minutes to a few hours. They can be a great change-of-pace for students who find a subject difficult, complex (or boring). Best of all, virtual field trips can be taken much more frequently during the school year without the massive interruption to regular instruction. Setting Up an Effective Virtual Field Trip To get the most out of a virtual field trip, you’ll want to do some planning. First, and most importantly, choose a trip that wil... [Learn More]

What’s the best way to teach? That’s a question that educators have grappled over for as long as formal education has been around. Over the last decade, there has been a shift from linear teaching methods to more interactive ones, greatly supported by the development of a vast number of technology tools. According to Research.com, interactive and technology-based learning has proven to be effective. The site noted that “a study involving 105 preschoolers showed that children exposed to the gesture-interactive game-based learning approach had superior learning performance and motor skills” and that “the use of interactive learning techniques in eighth-grade and fourth-grade students yielded positive results.” The site pointed out that “with constant technological innovations, digital learning technologies have also made their way to classrooms and other learning spaces. They now augment lessons or become the tool for the educator to deliver their lessons.�... [Learn More]

By teacher guest blogger Kathryn Rose It is September and my bet is that your classrooms and schools are already full of activity and the chaos of learning. The first full month of school is exciting - and busy! Desks were cleaned and organized. Books were purchased and passed out. And I will be even more audacious and make a second bet… you probably spent a bit of your own money to make your classroom really shine and sparkle for your brand new set of students. Am I right? I know I am right. Especially if your classroom is large and diverse. Teachers want to ensure that they have every possible tool at their disposal to make the school year successful for each one of their students. But what if I told you that some of the most powerful tools for your array of learners can be free and are just waiting for you to download? I know, I sound like a used car salesman but I would never lie to an educator. In the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic, I thi... [Learn More]
