Italy Summit

Beyond the core applications in Google Drive, there are literally hundreds of Chrome Apps, Drive Add Ons, and Chrome Extensions that can enhance the learning experience. We will be looking at some examples - starting with add-ons for Google Docs that can enhance writing/research projects/grading, to tools that can be used to curate content (Diigo - social bookmarking app, Flipboard - create your own magazines and share them with your students), and visual communication tools (Piktochart - make your own infographics, Lucidchart - make lots of different diagrams) - to name just a few. We will cover a wide range of tools and 3rd party apps. We will also have hands-on activities like creating our own online magazine for out students, making our infographics and diagrams.
