Rationale

I want to include some simple skill sets and sites that will free up your time. I'm generally surprised by how little some of these very basic options are known among educators, and in many cases they could make simplify our work.

Essential Questions

  • How can I make what is on my screen a part of a document?
  • How can I modify photos to suit my needs?
