The Solution: Use the following “trick” to easily share the spreadsheet. Overview of Trick: Create the spreadsheet.Change the sharing options to “Anyone with the link.”Add “&newcopy” to the end of the link to share.When you share the appended URL, it “forces” students to make a copy! Step-by-Step Instructions: It looks like a lot of steps, but it is really quite simple!
Getting Ready Try It! ICE 14 Google Apps for Kids that Struggle. A New Way to Learn. Traditional Computer Based Learning (CBL) methods typically rely on one-way transmission of information.
These methods are seen as extensions of classroom learning and thus viewed by children as restrictive. Consequently, results from such CBL initiatives have, at best, been mixed. In Contrast, Hole-in-the-wall Learning Stations seek to create a new paradigm in the learning process by providing unrestricted computer access to groups of children in an open playground setting. We believe that such an open setting will use child’s natural curiosity to stimulate learning.
The essential features are: - The learning station is set up in an outdoor playground setting which children can access at any time. The playground setting offers a host of other advantages. . - The learning station fosters collaborative learning among groups of children instead of following the usual school model of rote based learning (unidirectional) . - The Learning Stations are used for various real life projects.

Description: Learn how to create a free mobile application for your class for iOS (iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch) as well as Android smartphones/tablets.
In this session we will learn how to create both web apps (which run via a web browser and do not require Apple Store / Android Marketplace approval) as well as basic, native mobile apps. Several different, free mobile app development options will be explored and demonstrated. No prior programming experience is required!
Become an educational leader in the mobile learning revolution by offering your students opportunities to access your course content via a customized, mobile application YOU create and update!
