FISD's Online Workshops

If you are looking for some professional learning courses, check out Eduphoria's Workshop or Strive for many online workshops. From Workshop, look under the Technology Integration category and under the T-TESS domains. Look for technology workshops like Everything Moodle, Google, Collaboration, Creativity, Critical Thinking, and Communication. (Yes, these are 6 different workshops. We like our everythings!) Also checkout curriculum workshops like Power Standards, Formative Assessment 1 & 2, Differentiated Learning 1 & 2, Marzano's 6, and QSSSA! Holler if you have questions and if don't know the answers, I will find them. These workshops are delivered online so you can take the workshops in your pajamas from the comfort of your couch.

Google Drive Sync

Several people have recently run across articles stating that "Google Drive is going away". The old Google Drive Sync software is what's going away, or more accurately, being replaced by new software. Google Drive storage isn't going anywhere. 
Right now Backup and Sync by Google is the only functioning replacement. Later this month, Drive File Stream will also be available. I'll send out more information after we've had time to check it out and see which is the best option for FISD teachers and staff.
