Hello and welcome to episode number twenty-six of the one-five. I am your podcast hostess - Tricia Louis - the self-designated tech goddess and I will be coming to you weekly in this audio podcast format with great edtech tools, tips, and tricks.
In this week’s episode, I will be talking about the Use Immersive Reader Chrome Extension. Immersive Reader is a reading enhancement tool that was invented by Microsoft and is widely available in the edge browser as well as in Microsoft 365 products. But, what if your school is a google school? Can you access all of the great functions of Immersive reader on a chromebook? With the Use Immersive Reader Chrome Extension, the answer is a resounding YES!
Simply install the extension in google chrome and then goto some text on a website. Then, highlight a portion of text and right-click on it (or a two-finger tap on a trackpad on a chromebook). Then in the secondary menu that appears, choose “help me read this” and in a few moments your text will be transported to the immersive reader.  
When you enter the immersive reader interface, you will notice some menus in the upper right corner. In the text options menu, you can change the text size, change letter spacing, change the font (it only has 4 font choices - which in my book is great for kids so they don’t spend too much time trying to pick a font), and you can also change the background color. 
In the next menu that looks like lines with a magic wand, you can utilize the parts of speech option where immersive reader will show the syllables of words and you can change the color of the words to match the different parts of speech: like nouns, verbs, adjectives, and adverbs. In the final menu, which looks like a book, you can change your reading preferences. The reading preferences include line focus, picture dictionary options, & translation options. 
Once you have those settings adjusted, you can listen to your text by pressing the play button at the bottom of the screen. Note, there is one other menu next to the play button that has voice settings - there you can change the voice speed and if you prefer a male or female voice. 
What I find most useful about the immersive reader is the translation function and that it also reads aloud the translated text. You have a choice of over 120 language options in the immersive reader. Now, we all know that all digital translation is not perfect, but this goes a long way in helping students be able to access content that they might not have been able to in the past.
If you want to leave the Immersive Reader view, simply click the arrow in the upper left corner and you will return to the regular web content.
The Use Immersive Reader Chrome Extension is super powerful and I highly recommend you add this chrome extension to your collection!

Hello and welcome to episode number twenty-five of the one-five. I am your podcast hostess - Tricia Louis - the self-designated tech goddess and I will be coming to you weekly in this audio podcast format with great edtech tools, tips, and tricks.
In this week’s episode, I will be talking about Chrome Canvas. Chrome canvas is a simple way for you to use drawing tools on your chrome device or in your chrome browser. 
Before I start talking about Chrome Canvas, I want to provide a disclaimer that in order for this product to work in your institution's google environment, your Google Administrator must enable it, as it is not part of the core workspace apps. Please have your google administrator consult the support article in the show notes about adding additional services to your Google Workspace. If you have your own private google account, you can certainly demo this app for yourself or your school administrators so that they can authorize its use in your institution account.
In order to use Chrome Canvas, simply goto canvas.apps.chrome on your chromebook or in google chrome on your mac or PC and sign in to your google account - that way your drawings are auto-saved and they will sync across your devices.
Once you are signed in, you will notice that the interface is very simple for Chrome Canvas. You can start from a blank page with the “new drawing button” or start with an image in the background with the “new from image button”. Once you have made your choice, you will enter the drawing space.
Across the top you will notice the home icon - that is where all your drawings are located. Then you have undo and redo buttons. Then the most interesting button for a barebones drawing app like this is the ability to use layers! The more menu (three vertical dots in the upper right) allows you to download an image or share your drawing with a variety of sharing options. Along the left hand side, you will see your drawing tools. You can choose from the color palette or refine your color choice by using hex codes. You can also change the size and opacity of your drawing tool with the icon that looks like a pencil that is tipped on a triangle. Then you have a pencil, pen, marker, chalk and an eraser for your core drawing tools. And that is pretty much it. It is a very simple interface and sometimes that is better because you don’t get bogged down in so many choices. 
Now this tool works best on a touch-enabled chromebook or if you have a wacom or other drawing tablet attached to your mac or PC. You can even use this in the chrome browser of your ipad or iphone. Drawing with a regular trackpad or mouse is kind of difficult, but did you know that if you hold down the lower left corner of a trackpad with your non-dominant hand, you can use a stylus with your dominant hand and draw with it. So the trackpad becomes a mini drawing tablet - like a wacom tablet!
One thing I must point out is that Chrome Canvas is NOT a collaborative drawing tool like other google apps - if you are looking for something like that, I would recommend google jamboard for classroom use.
Overall, Chrome Canvas is a fun way to be able to draw on a chrome device or in your chrome browser…I encourage you to give it a try!

Hello and welcome to episode number twenty-four of the one-five. I am your podcast hostess - Tricia Louis - the self-designated tech goddess and I will be coming to you weekly in this audio podcast format with great edtech tools, tips, and tricks.
In this week’s episode, I will be talking about the iOS app called “Make It Big” - this is a quirky little iPhone or iPad app that might fill a few needs in your personal and professional life!
Once you install the free app - there are no ads or in-app purchases. You simply type text and the app will make it big. The text will fill the size of the screen it goes on in landscape or portrait modes. 
Now you may be thinking to yourself, how would I use an app like this? Well, for your personal life you could put it on your phone or ipad and use it to communicate with people that are a little distance from you – you can even shake your device and the screen will flash. This is a great tool for accessibility as well - if you happen upon someone with a hearing impairment, you can communicate quickly with this app in a pinch. 
In the classroom, you can install this app on iPads and then students can use it to answer questions silently. They can type their text and then show the ipad screen to the teacher and you can visually see right/wrong answers. This would be a fun review game or even use it for a silent spelling bee! The app remembers your messages so you can even bring them back from the menu without retyping! Use this app in conjunction with Apple Classroom or other screen management tools and you can lock students into this app and they cannot utilize the other resources (web, etc.) on the device.
You can do a little customizing of your big message by changing the font and the text & background colors. There is even a widget for the app, so it will display your latest message in that widget and now even in lock screen widgets on your iPhone with iOS 16.
This app does not have a lot of bells and whistles, but it is a fun little app that you can utilize in your personal life and in unique ways in your learning environment!

Hello and welcome to episode number twenty-three of the one-five. I am your podcast hostess - Tricia Louis - the self-designated tech goddess and I will be coming to you weekly in this audio podcast format with great edtech tools, tips, and tricks.
In this week’s episode, I will be talking about Text Blaze.
With Text Blaze, users can create templates for commonly used phrases, email signatures, and other text snippets, and then use keyboard shortcuts or custom commands to insert them into any web form or document. This can significantly speed up tasks like filling out forms, composing emails, or writing reports.
This is how it works:  Save any "snippet" of text in Text Blaze as a template and give it a shortcut.
You could try /ty for a sentence that reads thank you very much. Then, whenever you need that text, you simply type the shortcut and the snippet text will be substituted for it wherever you are in Chrome. It works in docs, slides, gmail, forms, or wherever there is a textbox!
With the free version of Text Blaze you can have up to 20 snippets and up to 2,500 characters in each snippet. There are also pro and enterprise pricing solutions for a personal or institution-wide upgrade.
I have used Text Blaze now for a few months and I have a few repetitive phrases that I have made snippets for and I simply just type the shortcut and voila the whole text is there. It is an amazing little tool - I encourage you to give it a try.

Hello and welcome to episode number twenty-two of the one-five. I am your podcast hostess - Tricia Louis - the self-designated tech goddess and I will be coming to you weekly in this audio podcast format with great edtech tools, tips, and tricks.
In this week’s episode, I will be talking about Novel Effect. Novel Effect is a magical way to enhance story time in your classroom. The ever-expanding Novel Effect Library is at nearly 1000 books and in each of those books the app unlocks a soundscape of music, sound effects, and character voices that will delight students as you or they read the book aloud. The best thing about Novel Effect is that you don’t need any special books. The books from your classroom, school, or community library will work with the app - the magic comes from the reading of the book as the app listens for the text that is read to play the amazing sounds at the right time.
The app - available on iOS, Android, and now Chromebook (via the Google Play App store for chromebooks) - is very simple to use…here are the steps: First you download the app then you create your account. Select a book from the Novel Effect Library that you have the printed book for. There are also a few ebooks right in the app, so you can sample the novel effect fun right away if you don’t have a printed book. Then you will tap the PRINT button on the app - you will hear a chime and then start reading and experience the magic of music, sounds, and character voices.
You can use the full app for a free 7-day trial and then you can purchase a subscription through the website listed in the show notes. Subscriptions are available at the individual, school, and district levels.
So you have heard about how to use the app and now I will treat you to a book being read with Novel Effect. This book is called “The Ugly Pumpkin” by Dave Horowitz. Note: I have obtained permission from the author to make this recording for you. I have a special tie to this Novel Effect Soundscape as I was a guest musician on the soundtrack - each time you hear any clarinet music, that is actually ME playing in the score. So enjoy The Ugly Pumpkin.
–Audio from read book is inserted at this time–
I hope you have enjoyed that book and explore Novel Effect for yourself…it is truly amazing!

Hello and welcome to episode number twenty-one of the one-five. I am your podcast hostess - Tricia Louis - the self-designated tech goddess and I will be coming to you weekly in this audio podcast format with great edtech tools, tips, and tricks.
In this week’s episode, I will be talking about some Google Drive organizational tips that have helped me for the over 13 years I have used Google Drive. In this podcast, I am going to share tips around three main areas of Google Drive:: 
Folder First-File Second
Naming Convention
Starred
Then at the end I will also have a few random drive organizational tips.
First up is Folder First-File Second. It has been my experience that if you create a folder first and then create the document inside of that folder, you are going to be better organized! If you don't create the folder first, be sure when you are renaming the new doc/slide/sheet, that you utilize the ORGANIZE function right away to put it in the correct folder. I always start from drive instead of the individual sites of the docs creation - then I have my organization structure at the ready. Also, use sub-folders. They are great for getting things organized!
Next we have naming convention - The most important thing is pick a naming convention and stay with it! I tend to make my file & folder names pretty wordy, because it will help when I use search in Google Drive. You can also utilize special characters in the beginning of your name to prioritize it to the top of your google drive. Another tip is that you can use emoji in your file/folder names to give a visual cue (hint - don't put them at the beginning of the name - it seems to take forever for drive to load when emojis are first in the name - so just put them at the end) You might also want to think about a "color convention" as well -- what do the folder colors mean to you?
In our final main area I am going to talk about starred folders/files. Starred folders/files are a great way to organize documents, but come up with a HARD LIMIT for yourself of how many things you are going to star...because if you star everything it is not going to help you at all! I keep my hard limit under 25 - then I know that the files/folders in this area are truly special and it is a great way to get quick access to them with the starred category on the left file menu of drive.
Here are some other random drive tips:
Purge frequently - get on a schedule to keep your drive tidy and purge those files/folders that are no longer needed. Remember, once you put a file or folder into the trash it will automatically be deleted after 30 days!
Don't duplicate files to put in multiple folders -- add a SHORTCUT instead! Use SHIFT+Z on your keyboard to make a drive shortcut and then put those shortcuts in MULTIPLE PLACES.
Search for files in the omnibox of google chrome as well as right in drive.
Speaking of search - use drive ADVANCED search - in the search bar, click the drop down arrow and then you can refine your search by owner, file type, date, and so many other filters very quickly!
Worried about that "Shared with Me" area - just don't sweat it - it is an aggregation of files - they are not YOUR files. If you start deleting, you might cause problems for others, so just don't worry about it.
And finally, make keyboard shortcuts your friend! Check out the show notes for a link to a list of google drive shortcuts to get “under your fingers.”

Hello and welcome to episode number twenty of the one-five. I am your podcast hostess - Tricia Louis - the self-designated tech goddess and I will be coming to you weekly in this audio podcast format with great edtech tools, tips, and tricks.
In this week’s episode, I will be talking about PDF Candy. Now this sounds like some delicious treat you might get on vacation at a fancy chocolate store, but even though it is NOT something to eat, it is still quite delicious. PDF Candy is one of those websites that earns a spot on your bookmarks bar as you will always find a need for it. What does PDF Candy do - well what doesn’t it do. Anytime you want to do something to a PDF or convert something into a PDF, PDF Candy is your one-stop shop. Simply upload your file and then choose from nearly 50 different PDF related actions. All of the PDF actions are super easy to use and you can even choose from your cloud storage (like google drive or dropbox). You can even create a favorites list of your most used PDF actions.
The site is free to use, but there are daily limits on how many files you can convert if you are using the free version. If you are a power PDF user, you may want to pay the $36/year fee to have unlimited access to the site.
PDF Candy even has a handy chrome extension if you prefer that instead of a bookmark.
I can tell you that PDF Candy has come to the rescue for me when I have had those situations where I needed to get a file into a PDF format OR get a PDF into a different file type. Like I said before, it is super simple to use and I recommend you add this to your web toolkit!

Hello and welcome to episode number nineteen of the one-five. I am your podcast hostess - Tricia Louis - the self-designated tech goddess and I will be coming to you weekly in this audio podcast format with great edtech tools, tips, and tricks.
In this week’s episode, I will be talking about Asset Tiger. Asset Tiger is an online asset management system. You can add up to 250 assets for free and manage them with unlimited patrons. This is a perfect system for a small classroom library or other learning space situation where you might loan out things to students OR to other staff members. You could even use this for personal assets if you wish. If you need more assets in your library, their pricing system is very reasonable. At my district, we use asset tiger to manage the check-in and check-out of all of our mobile devices and many of our stationary devices for students and staff, so we opted for the 10,000 asset plan and only have to pay $400 a year!! We manage over 5,000 assets and trying to do this with a shared google sheet just was not working. Asset tiger allows us to input our assets through a CSV upload (or manually if you just have a couple assets). You can also upload your patron lists via CSV upload. Asset Tiger gives you the templates and you just fill them in for any upload. You can even add pictures and documents to your assets so you know what you are checking out and have all the documentation necessary if a problem arises (user guides, warranty information, etc.). It is a fantastic service that has so many options and it is accessible through any web browser.
Now you might be thinking you need a fancy scanner or tags for this system to work - and you would be wrong. Asset Tiger even has a FREE companion app for iOS and Android and you can scan tags and check in & out items. If you want, you can buy a barcode scanner rather inexpensively and connect that to your mac, pc, or chromebook via USB - check the show notes for a link to a 2 in 1 wired & wireless barcode scanner on Amazon. And you might be wondering about barcode tags? At my district, we simply use the district supplied asset tags for our system, but you can also create those for free using Avery online. You can design your label and utilize your own asset numbering system. Then, you can print the labels and adhere them to your assets. Easy Peasy! 
Asset Tiger has many help videos to get you started, so I recommend you dive in and learn how Asset Tiger can help your classroom, school, or district keep track of their assets!

Hello and welcome to episode number eighteen of the one-five. I am your podcast hostess - Tricia Louis - the self-designated tech goddess and I will be coming to you weekly in this audio podcast format with great edtech tools, tips, and tricks.
In this week’s episode, I will be talking about Notability. Notability is a popular note-taking app for the iPhone, iPad, and the Mac.  It is designed to allow users to take notes, annotate PDFs, sketch ideas, and record audio all in one place.
With Notability, users can create notes using a variety of tools such as text, handwriting, and shapes. They can also import PDFs and other documents to annotate and mark up with highlights, comments, and drawings. Additionally, the app has built-in support for recording audio, which can be synced with the user's notes to create a comprehensive record of a lecture or meeting. The built-in scanner makes it a dream for teachers and students as you can quickly grab those paper handouts and digitize them in moments.
Notability also offers a number of organizational features, including the ability to create notebooks and dividers to categorize notes. Users can also search for notes by keyword, tag, or date, making it easy to find specific information.
Notability also has an awesome library - called the gallery - where you can find templates, ideas, and lots of inspiration on how to utilize all the tools inside the app.
One of the greatest bonus features of Notability is that the full app is FREE for educational users. You simply have to use Apple School Manager or a Mobile Device Management (known as an MDM)  application. My school district utilizes Jamf as our MDM, but the other major MDMs are Meracki and Mosyle. If you are just a regular user of Notability, there is a free download to sample all of the tools and create a few documents, but then there are in-app purchases available for a monthly or yearly subscription - note the yearly subscription is a reduced rate, so that is what I would recommend.
You can also pair notability with Airplay on your ipad and cast your screen via an AppleTV or using other applications like Reflector or Airserver (we have a mix of all three of those in our district. 
There are many ways to take notes on the iPad (or your iPhone), but the educational version of notability is an amazing way for teachers and students to elevate their note-taking skills.
