Auto-Emailed Daily Agenda from Google Calendar

Howdy RISTE colleagues! We're hoping that this blog will grow to be a repository of "tips and tricks" and knowledge that we can all share with each other. Here's a quick tip about how you can setup Google Calendar to email you a daily agenda each morning. For those of us without secretaries, that Daily Agenda email can be invaluable.

1. When looking at your Google Calendar, click the "gear" icon in the upper right corner of the page and select "Calendar settings"

2. On the Calendar Settings page, click the "Calendars" link

3. Click the "Notifications" to the right of your calendar

4. Check the "Daily Agenda" box and click "Save"

5. You can also click the "Notifications" links next to the Group/Shared calendars that you have access to and have notifications from those calendars included in your Daily Agenda email

I hope this helps and that your new Google "virtual secretary" keeps you from missing important meetings!

Innovation Powered by Technology Conference

Looking around the Donovan Center last Saturday at the RI Dept of Ed sponsored conference and saw so many familiar faces but only had a chance to talk to a few.  There were so many ideas about the future of learning and technology in our schools to digest and discuss, but so little time.  We've launched this blog in part to foster a continuing discussion on:  blended learning, access to online resources, digital learning environments, and teaching in on online environment.
I hope there are others out there who would like to share their ideas, hopes, and fears about digital learning and all that we heard at the conference.
Give it a try.......john bilotta

Welcome!

Welcome to the RISTE blog.

We're hoping that this blog will become a repository of resources that are available to all RISTE members, as well as anyone around the world (or at least in our little corner of New England). We're also envisioning this blog to be an opportunity for visitors to comment on posts and add their own contributions and expertise.
