Adding to Student Success with Google Add-ons

I don’t work at a learning institution that uses Google Classroom, but I do require students to sign up for a Google account. With a Google Drive account, students and teachers have access to incredible time-saving studying features and tools. These features make it easy to support learners with special needs, language learners, or promote student autonomy.

This year I decided to introduce students to the Add-ons in Google Docs instead of Google Chrome extensions. We just had too many problems with installation and permissions from the network administrators. Additionally, many of the great extensions require registration, which is a hassle. Many Add-ons are free and require no registration. Instead, students and teachers allow access to their Google account. To access, simply click the Add-on tab and click Launch. The Add-on appears on the sidebar. Below is a video tutorial on how this process works. Find Add-ons for math, writing, grammar, grading, MLA formatting, text-to-speech, and so much more! Below find recommendations for some awesome free Add-ons that require no registration.
