Google Drawing
Google Drawing, available as part of your Google Drive, is a powerful but often overlooked resource. It provides many opportunities for students to show what they know in creative ways!
Consider how you might incorporate this convenient and flexible resource into student experiences!
(NOTE to CHROMEBOOK Users: Google Drawing works best when using the touchPAD and not the touchSCREEN on your Chromebook. Hopefully, Google will adapt it to take advantage of the features on touchscreen devices but for now, use the touchpad and keyboard for the best experience!)
