Today's Tip:
Use grid view to watch students collaborate in Google Slides!
Last week during PLC, Jeff shared an awesome beginning of the year activity using Google Slides and Androidify. In case you missed the PLC, click here for directions. I love having students collaborate on the same set of Slides! It's like a digital workspace that is automatically shared with the whole class. Sometimes managing 30+ slides with the default scroll bar on the left can be difficult. Grid view allows you to see all the slides at once and you can click on any slide to bring it into view.
Instructions:
- Open the Google Slides presentation where students are collaborating.
- Click the "grid view" in the bottom left part of the screen.
- Zoom in or out as needed using the buttons on the bottom of the screen.
- Watch students in action! Or put it on a projector so the whole class can see each other's progress!
Wait, Back Up!
