Experiencing Google Apps, Chrome Apps and Chromebooks as a student

The Northeastern Wisconsin Google Summit was a great success!  I was fortunate to present a session to educators in the area about using Chromebooks in the classroom. For one hour teachers got to experience learning like a student.  I facilitated the session as if the teachers were students who participated in a day's lesson using Google Apps, Chromebook apps and web.

My goal was to model strategies that could be used in the classroom for collaboration, critical thinking and creativity and all while using a variety of digital and print resources to learn and and be engaged.  I wanted teachers to develop strategies for using technology to be part of the entire learning process rather than just used as a end of unit project.
