ICT - Class 6 - 25 July 2014

Unfortunately, I missed this class because I was ill, but I'll try to make up for it.

GOOGLE FORMS, SPREADSHEETS and FLUBAROO:
I've been having a look at Google Forms, a valuable tool which combines the results of a survey in a Google spreadsheet and offers the possibility of adding charts and graphs! I was amazed at its simplicity and effectivity - I completed a form on our ICT course and got the results immediately!
Google forms seems ideal for quizzes... And Flubaroo is the easiest way to grade them, an add-on that can be installed from the spreadsheets.

GOOGLE DRAWINGS:
I've been learning how to make drawings more "dynamic" with Google Drawings. I had always wondered how to insert a link on an image... Now I know!

DRIVE TUNES:
Similar to Grooveshark? Great to play your favourite music wherever you are!

I'm really looking forward to the next lesson!
