Some very useful add-ons! Thanks so much @michael.lutz ! I had added Equatio a few weeks ago after hearing about somewhere here in the community, and now added Spotlight and Split Screen after your presentation today! Love how much I learn here!
@michael.lutz Thanks for letting me participate in your virtual learning session today! One of my favorite add-ons is Screencastify. It’s a simple tool that allows you to create a quick screen recording with audio. Recordings save to your google drive and you can embed them into a formative. Since you can now hyperlink feedback in Formative, you could link your feedback to a screencastify recording that you’ve created to support them!
@michael.lutz, Thank you for the add-ons! I put ultra timer, tab resize, and permanent clipboard on my browser right away, and I’m looking forward to using them.
@michael.lutz I noticed that I needed to request permission to view the Slides. Can you change the access settings so anyone can access them ? You could make it “view only” !
@michael.lutz Love the tab resize extension! Thank you. Maybe we should create a list of Chrome extensions that teachers use when creating/using Formative with students
@michael.lutz Thank-you for sharing your add-ons. I really liked the timer feature and the tab resizer for the screen. I already added those to my Chrome. Thanks again for sharing.
I sooo loved these addons! Thank you! One suggested addon that I always use is Alice Keeler’s Drive20. If you want to open multiple files at once of say students’ projects, this will open up to 20 at a time in a tab.
Thanks, @michael.lutz as I just came across your webinar. I am a big fan of add-ons myself. I think one of the biggest things I took away as I listened was how easy it is for students to utilize these add-ons as well. The tab resize and timer ones are definitely ones that allow us to work smarter rather than harder. Students can find timers and can manually resize tabs, but often a lot of time is lost in these processes as they navigate back and forth between tabs. Thanks for the share!
