Where I’d Like to Go – An Icebreaker With Google Drawings

The idea is to have trainees practically place themselves throughout the world through making use of Google Drawings. To do this students initially need to discover a photo of themselves and eliminate the background from it. Photoscissors makes it simple and quick to eliminate the background then download a new background-free image. Once they have a photo of themselves then students open Google Drawings where they insert a photo of location that they wish to review or visit. Finally, they then insert their profile image over the background image in Google Drawings. Those actions may sound complex, but theyre not. In this short video I reveal the entire procedure..

As I point out in the video above, you can modify this activity to be finished with Google Slides or Google Jamboard. And, as is also shown in the video above, you can utilize Google Classroom to distribute a design template for the assignment.

As the new academic year starts numerous you may find yourself trying to find some originalities to get and break the ice to understand your new trainees while they also are familiar with each other. One thing that Ive constantly asked my trainees is “where worldwide would you go if you could go anywhere today?” Recently, Ive begun thinking about turning that question into the timely for an activity in which trainees learn a bit about
Google Drawings..
