On this episode of Design Cast I had the opportunity to speak with my high school industrial arts teacher, Coach Todd Vander Velde. Coach as he is known, has been a source of inspiration to me throughout my teaching career.  He is an all around awesome guy and listening to him talk about his 37 year teaching career is something wonderful!  It was such a pleasure to chat with him about what he is up to now and how things used to be!

On this episode of Design Cast I had the opportunity to speak with Eric Burton. Eric is the founder and creator of Classwork Zoom, which is a Chrome Extension that educators can use that utilizes the revision history of Google Docs and other items in your Google Classroom.  It allows the teacher to look at the time spent on an assignment by a student and includes analytics.  I have used it and it is an amazing tool to make your work as a teacher more efficient and effective.

Eric has made this product free to review a single student’s work at a time!  His website is http://classworkzoom.com and you can search for it in the Chrome Extension Store.  I highly recommend checking this out to anyone that uses Google Classroom.
