In the last week since I announced my new G Suite for Teachers professional development course I’ve fielded a bunch of questions about the course. Here’s a list of FAQs about G Suite for Teachers.
1. How early can I start?
The first lesson of the course will be available on January 1st. After that a new lesson will be sent to you every week. If you want to move through the course more quickly than that, that’s an option too. You can register at the discounted price of just $67 until midnight (Eastern Time) on December 31st.
2. My school doesn’t have G Suite for Education yet, can I still take the course?
Yes, you can. In fact, many people have taken the live version of this course without their schools having G Suite for Education in place. They took it as a way to get familiar with what they would be using when their schools did make the complete transition to G Suite for Education.
3. Is there graduate credit available?
There is not graduate credit available for this course. I am, however, able to provide you with a certificate of hours for professional development.
4. Is there a time limit on the course?
You can start the course any time that you want to on or after January 1st and finish it whenever you like. The default pacing is one lesson per week, but you can complete it quicker or slower than that.
5. Can I register with a purchase order?
Groups of five or more teachers registering at the same time can register with a purchase order. Email me at richard (at) byrne.media to get that process rolling.
6. I teach math/ science/ elementary school/ will there be anything for me?
Absolutely there will be! This course is designed to teach you how to use the tools within G Suite for Education as well as get you thinking about how the tools apply to your classroom. In the course I’ve included examples for math, science, social studies, and language arts in elementary, middle, and high school settings.
