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

As I discuss in the video above, you can modify this activity to be finished with Google Slides or Google Jamboard. And, as is also demonstrated in the video above, you can use Google Classroom to disperse a template for the assignment.

The idea is to have trainees practically put themselves throughout the world through the usage of Google Drawings. To do this students initially need to find a photo of themselves and remove the background from it. Photoscissors makes it easy and fast to remove 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 wish to review or visit. Finally, they then insert their profile image over the background image in Google Drawings. Those steps might sound complicated, but theyre not. In this short video I reveal the entire process..

Google Drawings..
