Google Slides Reflection

I liked using this tool. It is easy to use, and you can use it for anything. I liked how easy it was to embed a video into the presentation. I also liked how I could control when students saw something in the presentation. Eventually, a teacher is going to have to make a powerpoint presentation, so they might as well use Google Slides. It is easy to insert things into the slides, and you can do anything you want with it. I would use this as a teacher.

I never realized that there was a tool like this for teachers to use. It was fairly easy to navigate, but I liked how they had tutorials for everything, in case I didn't know how to do something. This tool would be helpful to get students to interact with learning a lesson. I would use this as a teacher.

It should also be visible on the blog! Make sure you only submit one answer!
 I never really thought about using a tool like this to gather information, but after using it, I like it. It is a good way to see what students like over another thing. It also has multiple uses, I can use it to gather information about their favorite food, or what color they like most. I would definitely use this tool as a teacher.

Google Docs

You don't have to worry about saving it, and it is an easy way to communicate with people. It is also helpful to use because if the computer crashes, you won't lose the document. I would definitely use this tool as a teacher.
