I Love Bitmoji's!

I love Bitmoji's! You can copy them in presentations, emails, text messages and more. Bitmoji's is a Google Extension and an App. To create, you must create an account. Once you have signed in you can begin creating your Bitmoji. This is so fun! You can even pick out accessories! I prefer to create my Bitmoji using the phone, but you can also do it through the extension when you sign in for the first time. As long as you use the same sign-on in Bitmoji your avatar will transfer between devices.

I add Bitmoji's to my email signatures, text messages, presentations, I have even made stickers and decals out of them. You can use these to create profile pics for webpages and even in Schoology!

Have fun! I'm here if you have any questions!

Google Photos

You have Google Photos and might not even realize it. Just go to your email click on the “waffle” and the select more and you will find photos. Google photos is a great way to keep up and share photos! This is the way I prefer to get team photos from teams at Oakwood. I will create and share team folders. Please put any pictures of your teams in the Team albums. If you need help with this please let me know. I will be staying after school this week for anyone wanting to learn more. Google Photos is also the best way to get pictures and videos off of ipads and phones. 

Google Photos can:

• Edit photos
• Share albums with others
• Create collages
• Videos
• Able to search for photos by faces or content
• Easily save photos and videos across all devices
• AND MORE!!!

Google Sheets: Split Text to Columns

Have you ever copied a list of names and wanted to paste them into sheets, but need the first and last names to be in different cells? This happens a lot to me at the beginning of every year. Sheets has a feature that will allow you to split the text within a column.  To do this:

•  paste the names into a column
• highlight the column,
• select data
• split text to columns. 

 This will split the names or other data into different columns.  This works really well if you are copying a list from TAC!
