 | If you have not met Google Keep - it is time that I introduce you to it! Google Keep, Meet our teachers! Teachers, Meet Google Keep. |
Let's get to know each other!
Casey Bell, describes Keep as "a robust G Suite tool that can help teachers and students create and share notes, lists, and reminders". On a basic level, Google Keep is a digital sticky note. The best way to better acquaint yourself with Google Keep, might be to check out Casey's Cheat Sheet below and through Matt Miller's video

I love how Google Keep works within Google Drive! Quickly you can access feedback, instructions, etc. for quick responses. You can see an example of this with Eric Curts video and post.

| You can also personalize and organize Google Keep by adding images! Check out the example to the right and Casey shows how here. Casey says that, "It’s easy to add an image to a note in Google Keep. Just click on the image icon and upload an image." |  |
Be sure to introduce your new friend to your students as well!
| Casey has a list to the right of 15 ways that students could use Google Keep. They also can/should learn how to buddy Google Keep with their Drive. This might be just the organizational tool that a student needs for that big project! Check out the example below with Mario Anima's GIF  And what about Matt's #10 idea from his post: Transcribe printed notes or words into text. Snap a photo of someone’s notes or a quote you need to transcribe. Choose “Grab image text” from the three dots at the bottom. Keep reads the text and changes it into editable text in your note. (Note: It struggles with handwritten text, especially if it’s small and it’s not in straight lines.) *Side note* You can do similar action within Google Drive - if you would like more information on that see this previous Explore post. |  |
Enjoy your new friendship with Google Keep! I'm sure your new friend will help you in some way -- organization, collaboration, save time, etc.
