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

The concept is to have trainees virtually put themselves throughout the world through using Google Drawings. To do this trainees initially need to discover an image of themselves and eliminate the background from it. Photoscissors makes it easy and fast to get rid of the background then download a brand-new background-free image. Once they have a photo of themselves then students open Google Drawings where they place a photo of location that they desire to check out or review. They then insert their profile picture over the background image in Google Drawings. Those steps may sound complicated, however theyre not. In this short video I show the entire procedure..

As the new school year begins lots of you might find yourself looking for some new concepts to get and break the ice to understand your brand-new trainees while they also are familiar with each other. One thing that Ive constantly asked my students is “where on the planet would you go if you could go anywhere today?” Recently, Ive begun considering turning that question into the timely for an activity in which trainees find out a bit about
Google Drawings..

As I mention in the video above, you can modify this activity to be completed with Google Slides or Google Jamboard. And, as is likewise demonstrated in the video above, you can use Google Classroom to disperse a design template for the task.
