Use a device with a camera that connects to the Internet. Load up Google Hangouts (Google’s video chat service) and start a video chat with the computer you have connected to your projector. Cut a piece of cardboard kind of like a table (two flaps that fold down as the legs) and a hole for the device’s camera to look through (see drawing at right … click on it to see full-size image). Set your document under the cardboard cut-out and the device on the cardboard. The video is sent through a Google Hangout to your projector automatically!

Start from scratch or create a template. Add text, images, videos, forms and other content. The design is flexible, and the result is gorgeous. It's pretty easy to create a Sway, and it could be just the change of pace your students are looking for.Classroom uses: presenting research, replacing posters, gathering information visually melissa_dent https://padlet.com/melissa_dent/mxw134wktwyt/wish/242143121 2018-03-14 23:56:02 UTC https://padlet.com/melissa_dent/mxw134wktwyt/wish/242143121 Pixlr (pixlr.com)Price: FreeThere's a ton you can do when you use G Suite (Google Apps) and images together. The problem: doing anything with those images. G Suite doesn't offer a really great image editor.That's where Pixlr can come in. It has a few image editing apps on the web that can help the beginner all the way to the expert. Pixlr Editor is a complex image editor -- almost on par with Adobe Photoshop. Pixlr Express is a simple, quick-edit tool. Pixlr O Matic lets users add filters, overlays and more to images.It's all free and it all runs on the web. It's a great companion to any tool you'll use images on.Classroom uses: Editing images to add to documents, slide presentations, websites, videos and more melissa_dent https://padlet.com/melissa_dent/mxw134wktwyt/wish/242143242 2018-03-14 23:57:04 UTC https://padlet.com/melissa_dent/mxw134wktwyt/wish/242143242 Hemingway App (hemingwayapp.com)Price: Free Students write a document.
