In this episode I share 5 keyboard shortcuts you can use to make teaching and learning better.
Many educators use presentations to lecture or teach students concepts. Often they also want them to be able to take notes from those slides while also have a graphic organization of the slides to help them with their notes. This is a quick way to help educators do that in Google Slides and Microsoft PowerPoint. Teachers may then make these files available for the student digitally for inking or typing or just print them out.
