Tech Tip of the Week - Jan 29, 2020
Trying something "new" today. I've written some Tech Tip of the Week posts to be shared in a
work newsletter. So I thought, "I should post these to my blog, too." Here you go. I'll post quite a few
rapid fire at first, then we'll back off to on each week eventually.
Ever wondered “What is the quickest, most efficient way to create a new Google Doc?”
No? Well, I’m going to tell you anyway. Try this right now.
Open a new tab in your browser, and in the address bar at the top of the screen enter docs.new

Great, now try sheets.new, or slides.new, or forms.new, or, or sites.new.
I just tried gmail.new. It didn't work, but it did do something that made my nerd senses perk up.
Makes me wonder if Google is holding out on us.

Squatter 32 - Is A.I. Cheating?
Keeping up on the rapid fire posting of squatters. Don't expect it to continue. I was WAY behind on posting. That being said, this Squatter asks the question what exactly is "cheating" when it comes to A.I.? It's not as black and white as you would think. Teachers need to consider this question on a continuum, rather than a yes or no. Check out Squatter 32 to see what I mean. Drop a comment and share your thoughts. Do you have experience with students trying to pass of AI generated work as their own? What do you do in your classes to encourage responsible use of AI... or do you just ban it and pretend it doesn't exist? As usual, click the image below for a full-sized PDF of Squatter 32.
