It is always important for educators to be ahead of the game. While it’s always a nice thing to learn from your students, it’s always best to be ahead of everyone else. This is why it is important to continue reading and researching, as, through these activities, you’re able to learn new information that may be useful in the future.
The Chrome Apps You Can’t Afford to Miss
Among the goals you have as an educator, one of your priorities should be staying up-to-date with the latest developments in the field of education technology. Why? Knowledge of what’s happening helps keep your work easy and makes you effective in your role. For this reason, we’ve scoured the Internet to find the best Chrome apps you definitely should know about (in case you don’t already)!
Google Classroom
If one of your goals is to create a paperless learning environment, Google Classroom is the solution. This simple tool allows you to create documents, forms, spreadsheets, and presentations. It can also be a great way for you to distribute assignments to your students, view their work, and provide them with timely feedback.
Lucid Chart Diagrams
If you handle a subject which requires you to make a number of diagrams, Lucid Chart can make the work easy for you. It will allow you to create and edit diagrams in real time. What’s even more impressive is its ability to merge and sync the changes you’ve made in an instant.
Class Charts
As an educator, you know how important it is to track your students’ behaviour and to keep a record of it. Additionally, you need to create a seating arrangement not only so that they can be organised but also to help put them in learning groups from which they will benefit. Class Charts is the Chrome app to help you with all of these things.
Socrative Teacher
Creating quizzes, question polls, and formative assessments can be timely and overwhelming when you do it all manually. This is why Socrative Teacher has been made available–to help you create them without much effort. Additionally, this Chrome app will also help you grade your students’ work and provide them with visuals of the result for easy understanding.
