Google Docs assignment by Kevin - Create the assignment on docs with the instructions and get a shareable link and share it with the kids. They must use their school account that way to use it. Make sure it is view only.

To begin the assignment Kevin posted the link on Edmodo then the kids can look, open it and save it to docs. They can then work in it and share it back to teacher with edit permission so he can mark there.

Students open a Doc and Title it - name class

Give a classmate in your Kagan group comment permission.

When they are finished they add - I’m done

When marked, teacher change title to marked.

It tracks the dates they worked on it, revision history.

3-D applications - I have been exploring various software for use with 3-D printers. I have been looking at linking them to geometry, angles and reductive as well as additive sculpting. If anyone is interested, I can fill you in.

Google Classroom - we had a discussion around this and if there were differences between it and Edmodo. It does connect nicely with Google docs, it would be easier with passwords and only logging on with one place. Would love to hear more from other who are using it.

Edmodo - parents are finally seeming to get it, kids are checking it.

We would like to do a set session on some of the Google things and are looking for folks who would like to share. I want to explore Google Forms further, any sharers?
