Kyle Taylor @kyletaylor13 and his school have implemented iPads with Google Classroom and are saving half (yes, half) of what it previously cost to set up a classroom with technology.
For Wonderful Wednesday we learn all about their decision making process and how teachers are using iPads and Google classroom to teach. Today we discuss:
- How to create an optimal learning environment with Google Classroom
- Why the Ipads are well suited for creation
- How the work flows from creation to Google Classroom
- Why teachers are excited to be able to share videos and lessons with one another in Kyle's very large school.
- How Kyle calculates the cost savings for setting up a classroom at half what it was previously.
A full transcript of this show and the show notes are available at www.coolcatteacher.com/podcast as well as details on entering this month’s giveaway contests. Kyle also shares his implementation guide.
