Google Drive has a variety of tools. Personally, I tend to use and have my students use Docs, Slides, and Forms. One that I have not used is Google Drawing. I just saw the power of Google Drawing unleashed yesterday at San Diego CUE by Derek J Marshall and Raymond Lopez.
It was genius how they have their students use it to analyze cartoons. They have their students upload a political cartoon into the drawing as an image. Next, have the students draw the cartoon into quadrants. Then, break down the cartoon by quadrant using the drawing tools and comment/text boxes.
This would also be a great collaboration activity to have pair or a table group of four work on together.
Here are a couple of pics of the the samples that they shared with us in their session.
Below are the steps to using Google Drawing. You can also click HERE for a link to the steps to share with your students and peers.
Get drawing!
