New features for Google for 2015-16 school year

Google has added some new features for the 2015 school year.  

   Google Classroom: See the short video that I made about it below.  Highlights: Use the + button at the bottom-right of your screen. From there, you can re-use a post from another current class or an old class. You post a question for students to respond to you and they can also respond to each other.  Also, you can go into "about" at the top and add an additional teacher to your class. 

Voice Typing in Google Docs. In Google Docs, on the Tools menu choose "Voice Typing." You must "allow" your microphone, then you can speak and Google will type. Great for students who are struggling to type for any reason.
