Google Literacy – Sylvania Digital Learning

Presented by Marilyn Waite and Darla Omey

Last presented on October 19, 2015 as part of the Sylvania Fall Inservice Day; Next presentation to be announced!

From the ad: “Do you feel lost when someone starts talking about Google Docs, Drive, Forms, Slides, and . . . uh . . . all the rest? Relax and come to this session!”

We will work on basic principles in Google products, such as sharing documents, organizing drive, converting Microsoft Office files, and more. This is the session for beginning users and those that want to make sure they know the basics. Session participants may want to bring a flash drive or have access to Word files so those files can be uploaded to Drive.

From the ad: “Do you feel lost when someone starts talking about Google Docs, Drive, Forms, Classroom, Slides, and . . . uh . . . all the rest? Relax and come to this session! We will work on basic principles in Google products, such as sharing documents, organizing drive, converting Microsoft Office files, and more. Advanced users, stay away! This is the session for beginning users and those that want to make sure they know the basics.”

In this session, participants will explore the three basic concepts in Google’s approach to education: cloud computing, account-based services, and file sharing. In exploring those concepts, participants will explore Chrome and Drive, learning not only some basic tasks, but the reason behind them. Participants will leave understanding the basic approach being used in Google Apps for Education.
