We are now coming into our third year of being a Google Apps for EDU school. Staff are becoming increasingly proficient at using Google tools. But I still frequently come across people who aren’t aware of the full power of the package. In light of this, I have set up two hour-long sessions for staff to show them some of the things that might help them further with their jobs.

These are the things I’m going to show them:

  1. Google classroom
  2. Labs in calendar
  3. Appointment slots in Google calendar
  4. How to import the school calendar into your own Google calendar
  5. How to import a two-week timetable into Google calendar
  6. Labs in e-mail
  7. Updates to Google drive - office compatibility mode
  8. Import HMTL function in sheets
  9. Mail merging from a spreadsheet
  10. Google shortcut key-presses
  11. Google translate
  12. Vlookup
  13. Managing your drive including placing a file in two places
  14. Tracking the activity of files in the new Drive
