Tech Notes

This morning as I was creating a new Google Form, I noticed a few new options that I have never seen before. You now have the option to shuffle question order and collect only one response from each user as an overall option on the whole form rather than on individual questions in the past. This will help greatly for those who use forms for student assessment. Check out this update from Google:  https://support.google.com/docs/answer/160166?hl=en

Check out this awesome new game by Google, using Google Maps.   http://smartypins.withgoogle.com/ Players are presented with trivia questions that they have to answer by placing a pin on a map. Players earn and lose miles for correct and incorrect answers. Questions are from five different categories including: arts & culture, science & geography, sports & games, entertainment, and history & current events.  Beware this game is so much fun and very addictive.
