How to Create and Share Google Photos Albums My first idea was to use a service like Seesaw to share pictures with students' parents. I've done that in the past in my own classroom and now my kids' teachers do the same. My other suggestion was to create a Google Photos album that is shared with parents. How to do that is demonstrated in my new video that is embedded below. Video - How to Create & Share Albums in Google Photos  Applications for Education The benefit of creating and sharing a Google Photos album is that its URL stays the same no matter how many times you update the contents of the album. Theoretically, you could share the album' URL with parents at the start of the school year and they can simply revisit it whenever they want throughout the school year to see the latest updates you've made. Of course, you should always check your school's policy about sharing pictures that have students' faces in them before you publish a photo album. You might find that you have some parents who don't want their children to appear in photographs that other parents can see.     How to Scan and Search Handwritten Notes in Google Keep and Docs In this week's Practical Ed Tech Newsletter I shared a couple of studies that support the benefits of handwriting notes over typing notes. In the newsletter I also shared a couple of tips for digitizing handwritten notes. One of the things that I mentioned was using Google Keep to digitize handwritten notes. Google Keep's free mobile apps for iOS and Android let you snap a picture of a handwritten note and then convert the handwriting into a text note. The text can shared directly to Google Documents.

In this new video I demonstrate how to use Google Keep to scan handwritten notes, convert the notes to text, share the notes to Google Docs, and search for your notes in Google Keep and in Google Docs.
