If you create google slides using the Master view, the parts you create in masterview can't be moved. I learned that recently and it's so fast! You don't have to save a jpeg or png! It's another game changer. (But you can customize more and use cooler fonts in powerpoint!)

Thanks for watching and for the feedback! I like using the arrow for MC questions because it also helps students practice dragging and dropping. My students always struggle with that at the beginning of the year, so I like to give them opportunities to practice manipulating items on the screen before state testing at the end of the year.

@@Vestals21stCenturyClassroom Thanks for replying to my comment. I do have a question/request. I have subscribed to you videos and I have looked over your blog for this answer, but I'm still not sure. Would you share how once you have taken one of your TPT PDF products and converted some of the slides to digital for Google, how do you uplaod it back onto TPT with the combination of PDF and digital or is there a difference?

This is extremely valuable thank you! I did have one question. I am struggling with my slides always being blurry when I turn them into jpegs from powerpoint. Do you have any suggestions in order to maintain the same amount of clarity the powerpoint has as the original before switching it to google slides?

@Vestals21stCenturyClassroom Жыл бұрын

Hi Brittany! Thanks for watching. Hmm... I have not experienced this before. Maybe try saving as a PNG instead of a JPEG?

@hi5english696 3 жыл бұрын

If we want that Ss do not mess different elements, first we can work in Edit Master in Google slides, and then insert them.

@Vestals21stCenturyClassroom 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Mirela! Yes, you are correct! Editing in master view will also allow you to lock images and text down. I find that I work the fastest using the method I show in this video, but I always encourage all educators to do what is best and easiest for them.

This is so fantastic. Unfortunately my my school has not allowed for Slides Toolbox. Do you know any work around or a similar tool?

@Vestals21stCenturyClassroom Жыл бұрын

You can go through the process of turning each PowerPoint slide into a JPEG. Then, apply each JPEG as a background to each slide. This does the same thing as using Slides Toolbox. Slides Toolbox just helps you save time because you can do all of the slides at once rather than having to click through each one and apply the backgrounds individually.

Any chance you can share a way to add a spinner/random name generator into a google slide that does not redirect to a new tab or website? I would like students to be able to spin within the slide.

@Vestals21stCenturyClassroom 3 жыл бұрын

Hi Jenn! Thanks for watching and commenting. I am not aware of a way to add a spinner or random name generator without having it link to an outside site. I just did a Google search to see if I could find a Slides Add-On that could do it, but I couldn't find any results. :( If you are looking for a random generator, I have another video with my favorite one (but I have not been able to embed it on a Slide): kzfaq.info/get/bejne/l9l2p9yX28yVin0.html

Even if you don't have PP, you should be able to do the same thing following the same steps. Create your worksheets in Apple's version of PP and save as a PDF.

@Vestals21stCenturyClassroom 3 жыл бұрын

Hi! Thanks for watching! I'm not sure what you mean by the drawing section. Google Slides does not offer drawing tools although students can use the lines and shapes tools to create objects. I have students use those tools to create images sometimes. If you want students to be able to draw, you will need to use Google Jamboard or Google Drawings.

NO, NO, NO, NO. As a student can I can not stress strongly enough slides are awful for worksheets. I will admit this could be just an issue with my teachers but they are a nightmare to use and edit. Sadly 90% of my homework during covid has been on google slides but on the rare occasions with we are assigned something on google docs it is the such a treat. Please I beg you teachers actually try to do these assignments you create and see if you honestly think they work better on slides rather than google docs.
