Save As Doc Add-on

If you use Google Forms for quizzes, surveys, etc. you are going to love Save As Doc. I just used Save As Doc to view the results from a survey. On my survey I had a long answer question. It was very difficult to read the responses in Google Sheets. Once I ran the Save As Doc Add-on in Google Sheets I could easily read all of the survey responses in Google Docs. Below is a short tutorial. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Geddit

Geddit is a free app that you can use in your classroom to check for student understanding in real time. Students can answer multiple choice questions, short answers, polls, math problems, and more. A powerful part of Geddit is the check-in feature. Students can privately (only their teacher can see) check-in as many times as they need to during a lesson to show their understanding. Students can get "Geddit" at the Chrome Web Store. You can go to the Geddit website to create your class now. Below is a beginners video for getting started.


Here are some Geddit resources:
-Chrome Web Store: Geddit
-Poster for check-ins: Poster
-Introduction for students: Intro
