Seesaw App

The Seesaw App is a great resource for teachers.  This app allows teachers to have a virtual portfolio of student work.  The app allows users too add pictures, videos, recordings, drawings, notes, and add links.  The app also makes it very easy for teachers to communicate with parents.  Did I mention it's free?!

Google Update (incase you missed it!)

This past month Google created a great update to Google Docs that is extremely helpful when collaborating with others.  When you are in Google Docs click on "File" and select "See New Changes" in the Docs navigation bar.  This allows the user to see the edit history and who made the edits.  This update is very helpful to be able to quickly find and see the edits from collaborators.

Google Voice Typing

Google has just recently released Voice Typing.  This allows users to use voice dictation in Google Docs without the need of external apps or extensions.  Users can use a computers built in microphone or headphones.  Having tried out the feature myself, I can say that it does a VERY good job at picking up my voice.  I had no issues!  It is definitely a great free option for voice dictation.
