You Can Name Google Folders with Emojis?

By Anonymous -
Ever wonder how Google folders are organized?
🙄💻
Here is a quick tip about organizing your drive. If you don't already know, when you organize your folders you can organize them by special symbols, then numbers, then letters. Many people know this already. Therefore, they name their most important folders 001, 002, and so forth.


What you might not know is that emojis actually come before all of these.
They act as symbols and come before numbers.
So, if you wanted to name (or rename) a folder with an emoji you can!
It's really easy. 
  1. Go to getemoji.com and find the emoji you really want. 
  2. Highlight it and copy it.
  3. Go back to your drive and find the folder that you'd like to be renamed.
  4. Create a folder to be named or Double click the folder so it can be renamed.
  5. Paste in that emoji at the beginning of the folder name.

Now that emoji will bump that folder up to the number one spot in front of all the numbers.

🤯
From here you can definitely see how you can get a little creative.
I suggest taking a look at all the different emojis at getemoji.com and have fun! 
In general, remember emojis come first before numbers, who come before letters. 
Hope this was fun. Watch the video for a step by step tutorial. Have a great day.

Google Summit Edtech Takeaways

I presented at my first EdTech Google Summit on March 11th and 12th and this is what I learned from it. So, I found out 3 days prior to the conference that I was bumped from Day 2, Session 7 to Day 1, Session 1 due to a presenter's unfortunate ill-timed relationship with a stomach virus. Holy crap! (no pun intended) ~ I would be the first presenter that many people would see. I am the introduction of what this conference means for people.  I was the WalMart greeter of the Google Summit and I was super pumped and nervous. I remember when I went to my first summit and the feeling of the unknown. I practically worshiped those presenters/ rock stars. Ok, so I might be a closet groupie. The idea behind it is, I want to provide a high-quality experience to those who are new.  I hold Google Summits to a high standard and I want to live up to that standard. After a fantastic keynote by  +Molly Schroeder  Bennett ( @followmolly ), everyone was dismissed to Sess...

Technology March Madness

By Anonymous -
Every year, March Madness is upon us. Basketball fans everywhere rejoice as every copier in America is struggling to print millions of copies of the NCAA Bracket. Although I appreciate the enthusiasm fans bring to the tournament season, I am not a big basketball fan. Therefore, I started a Technology Final Four bracket a few years ago that coincides with March Madness. I saw a similar bracket in a post a few years ago and I would love to give kudos to the technology person. But, for the life of me, I cannot remember who it is. If you know, write the person's name under the comment section below so I can give that person the credit they deserve!  Here's how it works: I send out a Google sheet with the bracket of technology apps and websites I believe would be of interest to teachers. This year, some of my teammates used Google extensions for "teams". Each App is hyperlinked to the website of that product. The teacher decides which product is better and moves that n...

Leadership 101: Learn About Yourself

By Anonymous -
#HowWillYouLead (EdTechTeam Series) I haven't blogged in awhile because I have been focusing on a new job: graduate school (Oh, yes...again). I recently became a student at James Madison University to pursue my Masters of School Administration licensure. One of the assignments was to learn about leadership and discover my leadership style. As a Google trainer and technology resource for my school, I have grown to where I believe I am ready for another opportunity: To lead. How I view my leadership style: Build trust Build relationships Collaborate Listen more, talk less. Challenge my own assumptions Because of my past experiences with leadership teams, such as School Improvement Teams, Positive Behavior Intervention teams, and instructional technology collaborative teams, I see myself as a “big picture” person or a “Systems Thinking” leader. I believe I have a collaborative style of leadership and I strive to get people to work together because I see collaboration as a gr...
