Simplify!

I just attended a great two-day conference on Google for Education. We learned a lot of new "tools" that make learning interactive, engaging and fun. But something else that I learned is that these are all tools. Tools for teachers and students to keep in their toolbox. But sometimes all these tools can become overwhelming, so why not keep it simple?  For instance, instead of using Thinglink to make your images interactive, use Google Draw!

Google Draw is my new favorite Google app.  It's Google's most overlooked feature and the more I learn about it, the more I find I can do with it. Posters, timelines, brochures, newletters, mindmaps, and yes--interactive images!
