  • Activity Pack 1: Imagine
    Activity Pack 1: Imagine Activity for Grades 6-8 Thomas Edison once said, “To have a great idea is to have a lot of them.” Brainstorming is a key part of this stage in the creative process. In fact, brainstorming remains one of the most effective creative thinking techniques in use today. The primary cornerstone to brainstorming is the absence of judgment or criticism. All ideas, no matter how non-traditional, have the right to exist at this stage. This is particularly valuable for those students who lack the confidence to publicly share their ideas. A comfortable, collaborative environment can help to inspire students during the “imagine” phase. Invite students to sit on beanbag chairs instead of at desks, in groups instead of by themselves, outdoors rather than inside the school, or listening to music instead of working in silence. This year’s Doodle 4 Google competition theme is: If I could invent one thing to make the world a better place. We can think of no greater purpose for students to show their creativity than to make the world better for others. It all starts with a little imagination! Graffiti Inspiration In this activity, students come up with 101 ideas for improving their schools and use their imaginations and the graffiti carousel brainstorming technique to generate creative ideas for how to make the world a better place. Strategy: This activity uses graffiti carousel brainstorming, a technique used to help generate creative ideas while stimulating physical movement. Large sheets of butcher paper are hung on walls, each with a different prompt or question.

  • Producers of Popular Science Web Videos – Between New Professionalism and Old Gender Issues
    Producers of Popular Science Web Videos – Between New Professionalism and Old Gender Issues Jesús Muñoz Morcillo1*, Klemens Czurda*, Andrea Geipel**, Caroline Y. Robertson-von Trotha* ABSTRACT: This article provides an overview of the web video production context related to science communication, based on a quantitative analysis of 190 YouTube videos. The authors explore the main characteristics and ongoing strategies of producers, focusing on three topics: professionalism, producer’s gender and age profile, and community building. In the discussion, the authors compare the quantitative results with recently published qualitative research on producers of popular science web videos. This complementary approach gives further evidence on the main characteristics of most popular science communicators on YouTube, it shows a new type of professionalism that surpasses the hitherto existing distinction between User Generated Content (UGC) and Professional Generated Content (PGC), raises gender issues, and questions the participatory culture of science communicators on YouTube. Keywords: Producers of Popular Science Web Videos, Commodification of Science, Gender in Science Communication, Community Building, Professionalism on YouTube Introduction Not very long ago YouTube was introduced as a platform for sharing videos without commodity logic. However, shortly after Google acquired YouTube in 2006, the free exchange of videos gradually shifted to an attention economy ruled by manifold and omnipresent advertising (cf. Jenkins, 2009: 120). YouTube has meanwhile become part of our everyday experience, of our “being in the world” (Merleau Ponty) with all our senses, as an active and constitutive dimension of our understanding of life, knowledge, and communication. However, because of the increasing exploitation of private data, some critical voices have arisen arguing against the production and distribution of free content and warning of the negative consequences for content quality and privacy (e.g., Keen, 2007; Welzer, 2016).

Please help Zapier by spreading the word about this book on Twitter! The suggested tweet for this book is: Learn everything you need to become a spreadsheet expert with @zapier’s Ultimate Guide to Google Sheets: http://zpr.io/uBw4 It’s easy enough to list your expenses in a spreadsheet, use =sum(A1:A20) to see how much you spent, and add a graph to compare your expenses. It’s also easy to use a spreadsheet to deeply analyze your numbers, assist in research, and automate your work—but it seems a lot more tricky. Google Sheets, the free spreadsheet companion app to Google Docs, is a great tool to start out with spreadsheets. It’s free, easy to use, comes packed with hundreds of functions and the core tools you need, and lets you share spreadsheets and collaborate on them with others. But where do you start if you’ve never used a spreadsheet—or if you’re a spreadsheet professional, where do you dig in to create advanced workflows and build macros to automate your work? Here’s the guide for you. We’ll take you from beginner to expert, show you how to get started with spreadsheets, create advanced spreadsheet-powered dashboard, use spreadsheets for more than numbers, build powerful macros to automate your work, and more. You’ll also find tutorials on Google Sheets’ unique features that are only possible in an online spreadsheet, like built-in forms and survey tools and add-ons that can pull in research from the web or send emails right from your spreadsheet.

  • O. Zymovets, Teacher Zhytomyr Ivan Franko State University USING GOOGLE APPLICATIONS in the PROCESS of PROSPECTIVE FOREIGN LANGU
    O. Zymovets, Teacher Zhytomyr Ivan Franko State University USING GOOGLE APPLICATIONS IN THE PROCESS OF PROSPECTIVE FOREIGN LANGUAGE TEACHERS’ PROFESSIONAL TRAINING Nowadays using Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is an urgent necessity in teaching process. Various educational programs on CD-ROMs, Internet recourses, authoring tools, online tests and other electronic materials help FL teachers to make lessons more exciting, modern, interactive and efficient. That is why a modern FL teacher should possess the skills connected with using ICT in the classroom as well as other fundamental professional skills: cognitive, project, constructive, organizational and communicative [1, p. 151]. The formation of prospective FL teachers’ professional skills can be performed in the process of studying various academic disciplines at the university such as Methods of Teaching English, Practical Course of the English Language, English Language (for professional purposes), etc. Taking into account the fact that ICT is one of the effective means of forming professional skills, we think it necessary to integrate ICT into the university courses mentioned above. The aim of the article is to describe the benefits of using such means of ICT as Google Applications (Apps) in the process of prospective FL teachers’ professional training. First, it should be noted that there are a lot of Google products that can be used in all spheres of human life including everyday activities, education, business, communication, rest, etc. Google products include web apps (Web search, Bookmarks, Google Chrome), specialized search apps (Custom Search, Trends, Scholar), home & office apps (Gmail, Docs, Slides, Drawings, Calendar, Hangouts, Sheets, Forms, Sites, Translate, Drive), social apps (Google+, Groups, Blogger), geo apps (Maps, Earth), media apps (Books, News, Image Search, Video Search), business apps (G Suite, AdMob, AdSense) and Mobile apps (Mobile, Search for mobile, Maps for mobile) [2].
