Dealing with Data
Forms.google.com
Use the addon that changes form data to sheets and then to a doc.
I like the way you can convert the information collected from forms into a sheet. I have set up a few of my forms now to send the data to the same sheet. This is great all my community consultation forms are set to collate in the same set of sheets. Yay! All consultation will be in the same place.
Google maps and my maps
Loved this. Can see lots of ways this can be used in the classroom. Plotting travel points in a novel, looking at distance and travel
I like the way you can share your location with family. I will use this when my son goes to Samoa.
While we were working on maps, a tradesman going to work at my school sent me a message saying he was on his way, included was a google map link to say where he was and his ETA. This was really useful.
Sheets
Add on called crop data that takes away the extra rows extra and columns.
I learned so much with sheets.
How to average one row, then all rows. How to make columns wider and thinner, how to do different sorts of graphs easily and use explore function in sheets to get graphs easily.
I made a graph of the number of posts my senior class has made this year, this has given me some food for thought and something to work on with the class.
Hi Mandy, that bar graph holds so much information and it will be very interesting to see what the senior students take from it. Isn't it great to see companies using the maps to inform us of their travels details, so 21st century! MyMaps will certainly put your mind at ease when Cameron goes to Samoa, looking forward to the updates. Good luck for the Google Level 1 exam next week.
ReplyDeleteHi Mandy,
ReplyDeleteI recently went to a conference and was amazed at how little I knew about google maps and google my maps! There is so much you can do with it!
