Good morning from Maine where colorful leaves and the wind tell us that fall is in full force on the last day of September. On a personal note, it has been a stressful end to the month as my school went from a hybrid model of some students online to a 100% online model in the span of one phone call. And I was observed by administration on the first day of fully online school. Despite some hiccups, it went well. I’ll write a detailed blog post about the experience later this week.
As I do at the end of every month, I’ve compiled a list of the most popular posts of the last thirty days. Posts about Google Meet, Zoom, and other online teaching tools topped the list. Take a look and see if there’s something interesting that you missed earlier this month.
These were the most popular posts in September:
1. Google Adds Another Control for Teachers Using Google Meet
2. Google Adds More Teacher Controls for Google Meet – Yay!
3. TeacherMade – Quickly Create & Share a Variety of Online Activities
4. Five Zoom Features You Need to Know
5. How to Reverse the Mirroring Effect in Zoom
6. How to Use Jamboard in Google Classroom
7. Whiteboard Chat – Online Whiteboards You Can Share and Monitor
8. How to Increase the Chances of Your Students Actually Watching Your Instructional Videos
9. How to Create and Use a Digital Sign-out Sheet in Google Classroom
10. Movies on Map – Discover the World Through a Map & Video Combination
