Join us for this webinar in which we will explore ideas on how to build innovative science lessons using the power of GSuite tools. We will participate in examples of how you can use forms, sheets, docs, slides, add-ons to build collaborative lessons with your students. With many schools starting school this year with distant learning, it will be so important to keep your students engaged in science projects while working remotely.
In this webinar we will participate in a remote, collaborative activity that will demonstrate the power of using GSuite tools with your students. We will then collaborate and brainstorm how to develop your own lessons. Tim is available to help you after the webinar to build out your ideas that can then be shared with your science teacher cohorts.
