Introducing Green’s Tech Integration Showcase.
If you have not used Google Communities before this may be one tool you want to investigate. Google
Communities are groups created on a specific subject. They provide a place for people to interact with each
other. In a Google Community you can post something you would like to share with the rest of the community
OR post a question to the community that they may be able to help you find an answer. To find the google
communities:
- Login to your Google Account
- Click on the Google Apps Button
- Click on the Google+ App
- In the left menu click on “communities”
From here you can search for communities to join that match your interests. Allow me to recommend a few that
are good resources for all things Google.
- G Suite for Education (255,000+ members)
- GEG Ohio (local people)
- Google Apps in Education (144,000+ members)
Just go to the community and click the green “join” button on the left. These Communities are great places to
post questions and get answers from other users of Google tools.
I would also like to recommend that you join the “Green Technology Integration Showcase” community. My
thoughts here are that is will be a place for you to share projects and ideas you have used with your students.
This will be a place that Green staff can get ideas from each other on how to integrate technology into their
classrooms. Click Join and post some of your ideas. This is a quick link to the Community:
