Google Drive Tips & Tricks THEN Blending into Sites
Date: 7/11/2019
Time: 1:00pm - 4:00pm
This workshop will actually be two sessions in one. First, hidden gems as well as new or buried treasures within Google Drive's apps will be covered. This fast-paced session will attempt to cover all levels so that everyone has takeaways to use the next day.
The second part of the workshop will uncover the Google Site that you have yet to build and blend in your Googles. Site themes, different inserts and embeds, links, layouts and pages will all be covered and practiced. At the end of part two all participants will have a usable Web site where resources can be shared with students and colleagues.

Description: Google’s Applied Digital Skills curriculum is an online site with ready-to-use video lessons that teach digital skills that have immediate, real-life application. The majority of the lessons use apps found in Google Drive. In this three-part series, we will cover the basics of Google Drive, focusing on why it is so useful for adult education. We will review four apps included in Google Drive: Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Forms. We will explore the Google’s Applied Digital Skills lessons so that each participant can develop their own learning plan towards G Suite Certification, and discuss ways of doing the same with students.
We are offering 4 cohorts of this training. Two will be a slightly slower pace for those new to Google or prefer a slower pace of technology instruction, and two at a slightly faster pace for those with more experience with Google apps.
Presenter: Nell Eckersley
Location: Grow with Google, 111 8th Ave., NY, NY 10011
The entrance is on the ground level of the Google office between West 15th St. & West 16th St.
