Hey All You Googlers! UCET 2025 was a success! I wanted to share resources from two of my favorite Google sessions this month. The first is the annual GEG Utah Demo Slam. Google Certified Educators from across the state battled it out for the coveted traveling 3D Printed Google Trophy. Our winner, Eliza Lyons from Granite District, featured ratings in Google Forms. Here are the rules below:

  • Each Google Certified Educator will submit one video
  • Video must demonstrate use of Google tools/add-ons/extensions/etc.
  • Demonstration portion of the video must be ≤ 2 minutes
  • Video must include a brief introduction (may be outside of the 2 minute time limit)
  • Video must conclude with a “SLAM”

This November, let's make our classrooms more accessible by shining the spotlight on Google Chrome's cool tools! Live Captions are like having subtitles for everything, perfect for our ML listeners. Switching languages on Chromebooks is as easy as pie, helping our bilingual students feel right at home. Finally, Chrome Reading Mode turns any page into a cozy reading corner, perfect for those chilly fall days. These features make learning fun and inclusive for all of our students!
