Search, Meetings, and Hiccups - The Week in Review Good morning from Maine where it is going to be another great weekend for playing in the snow. One of my dogs is doing that as I write this. He's happiest when it's cold and snowy. Just take a look at the picture in this post, that's one happy dog! I hope that wherever you are this weekend that you have time for something fun that makes you as happy as my dog is when he's rolling in snow. This week I hosted or co-hosted a couple of webinars. If you missed the Two Ed Tech Guys Take Questions webinar that I do with Rushton Hurley, you can watch it here. The content of the webinar about Google Earth that I hosted on Tuesday is now available as a self-paced course right here. These were the week's most popular posts:1. Annotations, Games, and Audio - The Month in Review 2. Two Search Refinement Tips That Helped My Students Today 3. How to Make Sure Students Aren't Unsupervised in Google Meet Video Calls 4. How to Use Google Calendar to Book Zoom Meetings 5. Daddy, What Are Hiccups? 6. How to Make a Copy of a Google Doc That Isn't Directly Shared With You 7. Why My Dogs Have Email Addresses and Your Dog or Cat Should Too Thank you for your support!
How to Change Your Google Account Profile Image & Why You Should Change ItWhen your school issues you a Google Workspaces for Education account your profile picture will just be a simple letter icon featuring your initials. Many people leave it that way only because they don't know how easy it is to change it. In the video below I demonstrate how to change your Google profile image. Applications for Education Changing your Google account profile image can help with name recognition so that parents begin to put a face with a name as soon as they start receiving emails from you. They won't have to wait until the first parent-teacher conference or open house night to make the association between your face and name. If you have more than one teacher in your district with the same name or similar names (at one point there were three Mr. Burns and a Mr. Byrne in my district) students seeing an email with your profile picture can visually confirm that they are emailing the correct person. On a related note, a lot of people don't realize that there is a difference between signing into a Chrome profile and signing into a Google account. I explained the difference in this short video.
