Slides, Assessments, and Bikes - The Week in ReviewGood morning from Maine where we've finally had a nice stretch of summer weather, if you ignore yesterday's rain. This week was full of bike rides, a backyard camping trip with my daughters, and general summer fun. I hope that you've had an equally great week. Besides the fun mentioned above, I spent a lot of time working on the backend of PracticalEdTech.com to get it ready to load my courses into a new format that will truly be on-demand. In the meantime, you can still access all of the courses in their current version right here. These were the week's most popular posts: Threads! Like roughly 100 million other people, I'm on Threads. You can join me here. I'm using it like I did Twitter in 2007, check it out to see what I mean by that. Self-paced Courses You Can Start Today On Practical Ed Tech I have self-paced courses that you can start today and finish at your own pace. Workshops and Keynotes If you'd like to have me speak at your school or conference, please send me an email at richardbyrne (at) freetech4teachers.com or fill out the form on this page.

One Good Way to Record a Video in GmailWith Loom's Chrome extension Gmail users can reply to email by simply clicking the Loom icon and recording a video. The video is then instantly uploaded to your Loom account and inserted into the body of your email. In this short video I demonstrate how to record a video right from your Gmail inbox. Yes, there are other tools for making screencast videos. And you could use one of those to make a screencast for a colleague, but I think Loom's Chrome extension streamlines the process better than other screen recording tools. Applications for Education Besides being helpful when answering help requests from students or colleagues, Loom's Chrome extension could be useful in having students explain exactly what they need help with when they send you an email. Sometimes students don't know exactly how to phrase their requests in writing so giving them the Loom option could be a good way to get a better understanding of what they're asking.
