GOOGLE SERVICES

Hi everyone! To day I would to talk about Google services. 

At the moment, Google offers a lot of useful and free services. It has services for work and leisure, search and communication, business development and much more. Today I'll try to talk about some Google products and their use in teaching.

 It comprises Gmail, Hangouts, Calendar, and Currents for communication; Drive for storage; Docs, Sheets, Slides, Keep, Forms, and Sites for productivity and collaboration; and, depending on the plan, an Admin panel and Vault for managing users and the services. 

 All these services may be used in our classes making the process of education easier and more interesting.

1. Google Docs


 I think it is the most popular Google services cause it helps create, edit, and collaborate with others from any device. You may work in a single document with teammates, see edits as others type, communicate through built-in chat, and ask questions in comments. Multiple people can work at the same time, and every change is saved automatically. As a teacher you may give students a homework and then coordinate it: check it online, edit and leave comments.
2. Google Presentation 

 Another popular Google device which almost every student and teacher use. Presentations help you to make your lesson intesting and visual. You can not only put important information on slides but also add some videos or music.


3. Google slides is a web-based version of Power Point with the same set of basic presentation tools. What's convenient? 
  First of all, it is free of charge, unlike Microsoft Offfice.
  Secondly, it allows you to start creating a presentation together quickly,
  Thirdly, like the vast majority of Google services, this one is available from different devices (computer, tablet, smartphone).


4. Google Forms  

Google Forms lets you collect information from people via personalized quizzes or surveys. You can then connect the info to a spreadsheet on Sheets to automatically record the answers. The spreadsheet then populates with the responses from the quiz or survey in real-time. This makes Google Forms one of the easiest ways to save data directly into a spreadsheet.
With Forms, you can start surveys or create quizzes for students with a simple online form. You can share your form via email, a direct link, or on social media and ask everyone to participate.
And since Forms is an online tool, you can share and collaborate with multiple people on the same form in real-time.

Though it seems that the name Google Drawing hints at the application meaning "drawing", it is not quite like this. This service is designed to quickly build (literally in two clicks) diagrams and schemes.

Good luck!  I think it's help's to you study!!

Hello everyone. Today I would like to talk about the the services I would like to use at my study. First of all I have to say that I like to use printed lectures instead of spending time on writing them at classes. I think it is obvious that it is easier to print and read the information at home and then discuss at class with a teacher. You can highlight everything important and have much more time for studying the material. I think that write dictated lectures is really outdated.  And if you want to remember it better you can write something important on your own.   As for the services I like work at some university's platforms. For example  edufsc.bsu.by  It's better to read the task, study some information, write the answer there and get your mark. You don't have to take a book at the library as you can just print the necessary paper. I also think that we could do some of our home tasks there (tests for example, when a computer can check and give us a mar...

Hello everybody! Today, mobile devices have penetrated so much into our lives that we no longer imagine our existence without phones. Previously, it was only a means of communication, but now the phone is a multi-functional gadget and communication is just one function from the huge diversity of others. Like many innovative technologies, mobile applications also become one of the tools in teaching foreign languages. Today I want to tell you about the  MALL  ( Mobile-Assisted Language Learning ) and some of its special features. The main principles of MALL: 1. Accessibility in any place; at any time and for any user. 2.Access to teachers, librarians, and other learners.  3.Ability to interact with other learners, including playing games, conversation, and project-based learning, capabilities to take pictures, capture sound, and input text. What is so important about mobile learning? It is not the device but the mobility of the learner that we can learn ...

Hi everybody! In this post I'm going to tell you about some services to create your bookmarks and about their evolution since 2008. Many years ago ... More precisely, about 10 years ago, active Internet users preferred to use browser bookmarks (they were not nearly as user-friendly as they are now, and users had to install additional software to use bookmarks in the browser) until various online services for link storage appeared. (Such as delicious, evernote, memori.ru, diigo and a lot of others)  The convenience of such online services was obvious. Users had access to links from any computer at any time they needed. Also in some online services, you can create different lists, upload images, make notes, integrate with other services and many other useful things. But I'm going to tell you about such service as the top-page. Here are my bookmarks in this service. Bookmarking services are becoming more and more popular among internet users and companies that...
