Report Card Time Saver

Report Card Time Saver

Use Google speech to text to dictate comments
Created by Scott Aten, January 9, 2020
It is that time of the year again "Report Cards". Report Card time can be very stressful. Along with entering all those grades, many teachers want to provide a meaningful comment for each student. A great time saver can be to use the built in Google speech to text feature to dictate your comment and them copy and paste it into the comment field in ProgressBook.

Here is how the "Speech to Text" or "Voice Typing" feature works in Google Docs.

This great feature is available for students as well, so consider modeling this for them at some point as well. It is like having your own personal secretary to dictate messages.

There are many other great features of Google demonstrated in the Green Google Training Center.
