• Which of the following is less torturous? (Would you rather?)

• 100 duck-sized horses or 1 horse-sized duck?

• Question 1: How can students create video projects on Chromebooks?

• John’s 3 questions:

• • Document? - Camera App - chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/camera/hfhhnacclhffhdffklopdkcgdhifgngh?hl=en
  • Demonstrate? - Adobe Spark - Spark.Adobe.com
  • Display? - WeVideo - WeVideo.com
  • • freemium
    • Paid version is totally different from free version
    • Can use WeVideo projects similarly to docs in Google Classroom
• Invest savings from buying Chromebooks into subscriptions like WeVideo
• Clap Motion Chrome App -  chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/clapmotion/kbjecgaklokmkijdkgeepcnjmcdoajao
• Headliner.app (age 13+)

• Screencastify - Screencastify.com

• Question 2: How can teachers integrate tech into the classroom without spending hours prepping lessons and learning about new tools?

• Teachers: stop trying to be the expert! Let the students do that!

• Pick a small set of tools and stick with those
