Go Google and Smash Some Apps with Gapps Smashing Dice!
This Google Apps Dice was sparked by a request from Lori Curtis on Google+ to make a version that included Google Classroom, Doctopus and Goobric.Google Apps Dice can be used in professional learning. These can be used alone to help review concepts, inspire integration ideas, and even quiz a partner to help prepare for the Google Educator exams. You can also use two or more to create an app smashing activity. For instance, how can you combine Google Sites and Google Search in a classroom activity?
