Updated G Suite Course Resources

Below you will find all of the digital creations I have made for my students this year in G Suite.  I will update this blog as I make more, but you can also access other US History Resources here and US/Civics/Economics Hyperdocs here.  Additionally, you can access my Digital Leadership Resources here.  Here are my updated Economics slide decks for this year. 

Before you use them, you will want to

1. Go to File and Make a Copy of each file you are going to use.  This will enable you to edit them in most cases.
2. Check all links to make sure they are still active and are accessible in your domain.
3. Decide how you want to push these out to your kids.
4. Edit what you need.  There are some slide decks that have been compressed so they are more accessible to students at home.  This means you can't edit the slides, but you can always insert one of your own slides and delete the one of mine you don't want. 

I cannot emphasize how important it is that you check every single link INSIDE your domain to make sure that your students will be able to access the resources. 

All of the files are public on the web, if you click on a file and it asks to request permission, it is because your school domain does not allow you to access files created outside your domain.  If that is the case, you will need to open it with your personal Gmail account and then share it with your school account, and then open your school Drive and go to Shared With Me. In some cases that still doesn't work.  Try copying and pasting the slides from your copy of my slide deck into a slide deck that was created inside your domain.

You have my permission to share these with your students and colleagues as long as you give me credit on them.  You do NOT have permission to sell these on any site.

If you have questions, feel free to email me at rmurat@me.stier.org
