Google Forms: Reusing Them Next Year

alicekeeler.com - Hopefully, you have figured out by now that Google Forms is the best thing since sliced bread. If you are trying to be paperless, Google Forms is a must have. Not only are you paperless but all of your information is typed and in a single location. No more shuffling or losing papers. The data from the Google Form goes to a Google spreadsheet. Once your information is in a spreadsheet the things you can do with it are nearly limitless. How many times have you dug through a stack of papers to find one kid's name only to confirm that it is missing. Instead use Control F (Find) on the spreadsheet and know in seconds if the student submitted answers or not.

Why do teachers struggle with technological change?

Why do teachers struggle with technological change?

educate1to1.org - The process of technology-enabled change in schools is poorly understood, probably because most of us have only ever caught fleeting glimpses of it.

Chief among the many reasons for this (institutional inertia, accountability risk, lack of tools aimed at supporting the processes of learning, etc) is impatience. Education is not a sector that has the luxury of taking its time – the children in our schools right now don't get a second chance once we've worked out how to do things right.
