Using Google Drive with Students Using Google Drive with students can help create a paperless classroom. Through the use of Google Scripts like Doctopus, Goobric, and Flubaroo, documents can be shared with students.

Doctopus helps to share files with students without having to go through the process of sharing individually. It’s a great management tool! Goobric will allow you to grade work using a rubric in Google Drive.Flubaroo can self-grade a quiz for you and provide feedback to your students. You can use preferences to help make grading quicker and easier. There is also a comments feature (see the upper right-hand corner of the screen) that will allow you to comment on student work. There are also a couple of voice apps that can be used to add comments.

1. Review these resources for using these scripts with Google Drive: [|__http://cloudlab.newvisions.org/scripts/doctopus__] [|__http://www.freetech4teachers.com/2013/01/try-doctopus-for-managing-google.html#.UopxHtLkvng__] [|__http://www.andrewcullison.com/2009/12/10-reasons-to-have-students-submit-papers-using-google-docs/__] [|__http://google.amassi.net/doctopus__] [|__http://catlintucker.com/2013/08/google-docs-grading-tips-tricks/__] [|__http://www.andrewcullison.com/2009/10/grade-student-papers-using-google-forms/__]

 * For beginners just getting started with Google Drive:**

https://sites.google.com/site/modules4apps/drivebeginner ]https://sites.google.com/site/modules4apps/drivebeginner

https://sites.google.com/site/docsdriveforbeginngers/ ]https://sites.google.com/site/docsdriveforbeginngers/

These sites provide an introduction to drive as well as calendars, docs, spreadsheets, and forms. This is a great place to go to reinforce some of the things we talked about yesterday as well as on Tuesday's Tech Bites trainings. I've also attached a basic file for how to log-in to the drive.


 * For those of you wanting to know more about Forms:**

These sites provide information on different types of forms and their uses in the classroom. These directions are very specific, step-by-step directions to help you.

The slideshow at this site will direct you step-by-step how to use gclassfolders to share assignments with students. This takes the Doctopus we looked at last week one step further and simplifies the management of student folders.

Wednesday Data Team Meeting
During the course of the day, the quiz results for each period only showed the class of students using that particular game pin, so it is not necessary to duplicate the quizzes for class periods. Remember you do have to download the results EACH period to have the data with Kahoot.

https://getkahoot.com - to sign up for your Kahoot account https://kahoot.it - student login with game pin

During one class period, we discussed graphic organizers. For those on Chromebooks, there are interactive graphic organizers at this site: http://my.hrw.com/nsmedia/intgos/html/igo.htm For those using iPads, there is an app for graphic organizers called Tools 4 Students.

The other quiz site we discussed with some groups was Infuse Learning at http://www.infuselearning.com Students would click on the student login and log in with their teacher's Room ID for the class. This quiz maker has some different types of questions than Kahoot, though it doesn't have the competition factor. It does have an interactive drawing option.
