... or filters! Make some of those pesky emails just ;go away'... #MAGEGchat
Replying to @Mass_GEG
A4. Probably Slides. Sites to teachers, for sure, but not EdTech folks, since I can't imagine knowing more than they would. Some GMail Tips and Tricks to teachers as well. Minds are blown when you teach someone about templates or custom email groups. #MAGEGchat

Wow - How could I forget about Keep?! Such an awesome on-the-fly notepad as things come flying at you! #MAGEGchat

A2. Chats to communicate with individual staff or as a group. Sheets to track meeting notes, data, etc. And my all time favorite: GOOGLE KEEP!! Google keep has been a life saver in keeping me organized! #MAGEGchat

A2: Docs and Slides for student activities, writing and projects. I like to showcase student work with Sites... #MAGEGchat
That is a great idea! I've found so many useful strategies chatting with others 'in the trenches' of ed tech! @jaspang #MAGEGchat

We've had good luck with Calendy - but appointment slots can do the trick. There's a LOT of gCalendar features ... #MAGEGchat
Replying to @Mass_GEG
A1. Anything that can directly help my teachers. For example, right now they are gearing up for parent conferences. I am recommending using Calendar appointment slots. Calendly as an option? Other ideas? #MAGEGchat

A1: I know Google has added a ton of features to their new Sites platform. It would be nice to see some working examples and think about how they can be utilized for student projects. #MAGEGchat
Our first question is coming up. We will be using the Q1, A1 format. Please reply to Q1 with A1 and the hashtag #MAGEGchat

A4: It's not the glitzy-est, but Screencastify seems to be getting better and better. It's something staff & students can both take advantage of & easy to use. Students can demonstrate their learning & respond in a more in-depth manner. #MassCUE x.com/MrsErinFisher/status/1…

Q4: If you had to suggest one tech tool to colleagues to help them teach in these (still) challenging times, what would it be - and why? #MassCUE

I don't think you had enough Kool-Aid... We... Must... Have...Data....! Data is our fiend (I mean 'friend')... #MassCUE. x.com/MrsErinFisher/status/1…

A3: I would LOVE to whack student data tracking. Can we just focus on moving forward, growing, and supporting our kiddos without the pressure of hitting a certain mark? #MassCUE

A3: Anything with a long learning curve is getting less attention in the classroom (the Adobe suite comes to mind). Class time is precious - so anything to lessen time to learn a new tool is a win for everyone. #MassCUE x.com/MrsErinFisher/status/1…

Q3: Out of the tools and strategies you gained in the last two years, which of them would you whack (not use again)? #MassCUE
