I am excited to be starting my 31st year in education, as well as my 10th year at SPARCC, the Stark Portage Area Computer Consortium, where I serve as a Technology Integration Specialist supporting more that 30 districts in northeast Ohio.

We are once again hosting our annual Educational Technology Conference, this year on Friday, August 5, 2022
  • The conference will be completely online and virtual with a mix of live sessions and pre-recorded sessions
  • This is a FREE conference for teachers, administrators, technology staff, and anyone interested in using educational technology to support teaching and learning. 
  • Certificates of attendance for professional development will be available for each session you watch live or recorded.
  • Recordings of all the sessions will be available afterwards if you can't watch them on the actual date of the conference.
  • This is an excellent way to kick off a new school year with great ideas!

Formatting Text in Google Forms

Recently Google announced some updates that will give you more control over the fonts and formatting in Google Forms. This can:
  • make it easier for your students to read the text in the Form,
  • or allow you to create more advanced questions,
  • or simply jazz up the look of your form.
In this post we are going to look at three options.
  • First, how to change the font for different parts of your Form.
  • Second, how to format the text in the title, description, and questions.
  • And third, how to format the text in the answers.
See below for a 6 minute tutorial video and detailed directions on how this works.
