A few weeks ago I reviewed Magic Digital Badges which is a Google Drive add-on that enables you to easily design and assign digital badges to students.  In today's post, I am sharing with you this practical video lesson designed by Google for Education and titled 'Design and Share a Digital Badge'. In this lesson students will get to learn how to use both Google Drawings to create digital badges and Google Slides to design scrapbook for badges they recieve.

Comic strips are powerful pedagogical tools that can be used in class for various educational purposes. As I explained in Comic Strips Guide for Teachers, students can use them in their digital storytelling projects to visually retell stories.

There are several web tools teachers can use to easily design educational visuals, posters and infographics to use in their instruction without the need for any graphics design knowledge.  Two of our favourite tools in this regard are Piktochart and Canva. Google Drawings is another powerful tool that is simple and easy to use and can be utilized to create a wide variety of graphics.
