The games will be built with a second screen experience and group play in mind, meaning they’ll take full advantage of opportunities for touchscreen controls, cameras on mobile devices, multiple devices and more.</p>
<p>The games will work together with iPhones (and possibly iPads) via a companion app that Sony confirmed will be available for both iOS and Android. For the most part, the games appear to use mobile devices as controllers, offering a second screen experience while playing games with others on a PS4 in the living room:</p>

Though there were standalone systems available, it was obvious even then that it made sense to adopt a common standard, and in the 1980s, X10 was that standard.</p>
<p>Fast-forward to a few years ago and what we gained in app support, we lost in standardization. Most manufacturers did their own thing, using their own protocols. There were one or two exceptions, like the <a href="http://amzn.to/2re4gyg" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Philips Hue</a> system that was really just a rebadged form of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zigbee" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Zigbee</a>, but most devices didn’t talk to each other. You ended up with a whole slew of separate apps on your iPhone to control everything.</p>
<p>Apple’s <a href="https://9to5mac.com/guides/homekit/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">HomeKit</a> platform was designed to unify everything, but that came with its own dilemma for early adopters …</p>

While other students could trace their roots as far back as the Mayflower, her story always stopped at her great-grandfather. At the age of 32, with the help of researchers at the <a href="http://eji.org/">Equal Justice Initiative</a>, a Google.org grantee, Shirah learned the true story of her great-grandfather’s life—and death. Thomas Miles Sr., a black business owner, was lynched in Shreveport, Louisiana in 1912 for allegedly passing a note to a white woman. Fearing for their own lives, his family fled the South, and even changed the spelling of their last name—from Miles to Myles—to distance themselves from the tragedy. It would be decades before his story would come to light and his family could begin to make sense of their traumatic past.</p><p>These stories are a difficult part of American history. Thomas Miles Sr. was one of more than 4,000 African Americans lynched in the U.S. between 1877 and 1950. Recently, the Dedman/Myles family returned to the South 100 years after Thomas Miles Sr. was lynched there.</p></div></div>

The organization’s founder, <a href="http://eji.org/bryan-stevenson">Bryan Stevenson</a>, believes that we cannot truly move forward as a nation until we confront this dark chapter from our past. Google is committed to making information universally accessible, so that everyone has the knowledge to better understand—and contribute to—a more just world. Together we share a commitment to creating a more inclusive society and <a href="https://blog.google/topics/google-org/doing-more-racial-justice/">leveraging data to fight inequities</a>, which is why Google.org is proud to further increase our support for EJI, <a href="https://blog.google/topics/google-org/strengthening-our-commitment-to-racial/">which began in 2016</a>. </p><p>Based on EJI’s original publication of the same name, <i>Lynching in America: Confronting the Legacy of Racial Terror</i> reveals both the scope of lynchings of African Americans between 1877 and 1950 and the profound way in which this era continues to shape our nation, particularly <a href="http://eji.org/enslavement-to-mass-incarceration-museum">in our criminal justice system</a>. Racial disparities continue to burden people of color; the criminal justice system is infected with racial bias; and a presumption of dangerousness and guilt has led to mass incarceration, excessive punishment, and police violence against people of color. If current trends continue, one of every three black boys born in America today will be imprisoned.</p>The <i>Lynching in America</i> site brings together EJI’s in-depth research and data with the stories of lynching victims, as told by their descendants. Through six audio stories, and a short documentary, <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ddum9-pdQpo&feature=youtu.be">Uprooted</a>, you both hear and feel the impact of this dark time in history on generations of families. You can also explore an interactive map that includes incidents of racial terror lynchings, as well as in-depth profiles of the stories behind these acts of violence. </div></div>

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>In addition to helping bring this essential history online, Google.org is also donating another $1 million to the Equal Justice Initiative to support their <a href="http://eji.org/national-lynching-memorial">national memorial to lynching victims</a> in Montgomery, Alabama. Opening in 2018, the memorial makes this history an undeniable part of the physical landscape, ushering the past into the present day. </p><i>Lynching in America</i> is meant to motivate a conversation. We hope that you'll not only visit this site but share its stories with others, and—as simple as it sounds—talk about it. As Bryan Stevenson says, “I don't think we can create a generation of people in this country who are truly free, who are unburdened by this legacy and this history of racial terror, until we do the hard work of truth-telling.” In bringing EJI’s work to a wider audience, we hope to give all of us an opportunity to address our past and be part of the work of building a more just and equitable future.</div></div>

Whether or not Apple will eventually enable such functionality for iPhone users is anyone’s guess, but I think the majority of us would welcome the addition with open arms.</p>
<p>That said, there is one drag and drop feature that all iOS 11 beta iPhone users already have. It’s now possible to manipulate Home screen app icons using drag and drop, allowing users to move multiple icons at once. Why use such a feature? It makes organizing iOS apps directly from the iPhone’s Home screen <em>significantly</em> faster. <a href="https://9to5mac.com/2017/06/12/move-apps-drag-and-drop-ios-11-iphone-video/#more-486996" class="more-link">more…</a></p><img alt="" border="0" src="https://pixel.wp.com/b.gif?host=9to5mac.com&blog=22754319&post=486996&subd=9to5mac&ref=&feed=1" width="1" height="1" /><img alt="" border="0" src="https://pixel.wp.com/b.gif?host=9to5mac.com&blog=22754319&post=486996&subd=9to5mac&ref=&feed=1" width="1" height="1" />Tue, 13 Jun 2017 01:16:22 +00009to5MacE3 2017: Alienware and Dell announce PC gaming systems powered by Windows 10

While users stateside may not use QR codes regularly, for many in China it has become <a href="https://www.wsj.com/articles/how-wechat-founders-obsession-with-qr-codes-reshapes-chinese-internet-1485364619">somewhat of a norm</a>.</p>
<p>Onstage, Federighi announced the QR support as part of “some features of special interest to our customers in China.” Coming in iOS 11, the native camera will have built-in support for QR codes. No longer needing third-party apps to scan them, QR code adoption may see a bump in usage over the coming years.</p>
<p>Native support for QR codes in iOS 11 will open the doors for some interesting mobile interactions. With official support for HomeKit and some third-party app flexibility in iOS, let’s take a look at which QR code types are compatible with Apple’s upcoming iOS.</p>

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>When people search for the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qibla">Qibla</a>—the direction Muslims turn to at prayer—they often look for a website or an app to point them in the right direction. Which explains why the word “compass” often pops up when we look at <a href="https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?q=qibla%20direction">Qibla-related search results</a> over the past five years.<br/></p><p>It would be a lot easier to simply hold up your phone and have it tell you the right direction to pray towards. So we’re launching the <a href="http://qiblafinder.withgoogle.com">Qibla Finder</a> (<a href="http://g.co/QiblaFinder">g.co/QiblaFinder</a>), a web app that uses the latest in augmented reality to paint a clear blue line within the imagery your phone camera sees, pointing you towards the Kaaba.<br/></p></div></div>

Luckily, G Suite can help you accomplish more at work, quicker. Here are four tell-tale signs you’re spending time on the wrong things, and tips on how to avoid these time-sinks.<br/></p></div></div>
<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><h3>1. You’ve spent more time emailing co-workers than you have actually working </h3><p>The average worker spends an estimated <a href="https://www.fastcompany.com/3043689/6-ways-to-cut-the-amount-of-time-you-spend-on-email">13 hours per week</a> writing emails—nearly two full work days. Luckily, you can cut back on time spent replying to emails with <a href="https://blog.google/products/gmail/save-time-with-smart-reply-in-gmail/">Smart Reply in Gmail</a>. Smart Reply uses machine learning to generate quick, natural language responses for you.<br/></p><h3>2. You’ve spent the past hour formatting slides for a presentation</h3><p></p><p>Is an image centered? Should you use “Times New Roman” or “Calibri?” Formatting presentations monopolizes too much of our time and takes away from what’s really valuable: sharing insights.</p>But you can save time polishing your presentations by using <a href="https://blog.google/products/docs/explore-docs-sheets-and-slides/">Explore in Slides</a>, powered by machine learning. Explore generates design suggestions for your presentation so you don’t have to worry about cropping, resizing or reformatting. You can also use <a href="https://blog.google/products/docs/explore-docs-sheets-and-slides/">Explore in Docs</a>, which makes it easy to research right within your documents. Explore will recommend related topics to help you learn more or even suggest photos or more content you can add to your document. Check out how to use Explore in Slides and Docs in this episode of the G Suite Show:<br/><p></p><p></p></div></div>

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><h3>3. You can’t find a file you know you saved in your drive</h3><p>Where is that pesky file? According to a <a href="http://www.cottrillresearch.com/various-survey-statistics-workers-spend-too-much-time-searching-for-information/">McKinsey report</a>, employees spend almost two hours every day searching and gathering information. That’s a lot of time.</p><p>Curb time wasted with <a href="https://www.blog.google/products/drive/save-time-with-quick-access-in-drive/">Quick Access in Drive</a>, which uses machine intelligence to predict and suggest files you need when you need them. Natural Language Processing (NLP) also makes it possible for you to search the way you speak. Say you’re trying to find an important file from 2016. Simply search “spreadsheets I created in 2016” and voilà! </p><p></p><p>Another way to avoid losing files is by using <a href="https://support.google.com/a/answer/7337635">Team Drives</a>, a central location in Drive that houses shared files. In Team Drives, all team members can access files (or manage individual share permissions), so you don’t have to worry about tracking down a file after someone leaves or granting access to every doc that you create. </p><h3>4. You’ve fussed with a spreadsheet formula over and over again</h3><p>According to internal Google data, less than 30 percent of enterprise users feel comfortable manipulating formulas within spreadsheets. “=SUM(A1, B1)" or "=SUM(1, 2)" is easy, but more sophisticated calculations can be challenging.</p><p></p><p>Bypass remembering formulas and time-consuming analysis and dive straight into finding insights with <a href="https://blog.google/products/docs/explore-docs-sheets-and-slides/">Explore in Sheets</a>, which uses machine learning to crunch numbers for you. Type in questions (in words, not formulas) in Explore in Sheets on the <a href="https://support.google.com/docs/answer/6280499?co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop&hl=en&oco=1">web</a> to learn more about your data instantly. And now, you can use the same powerful technology to <a href="https://www.blog.google/products/g-suite/visualize-data-instantly-machine-learning-google-sheets ">create charts for you</a> within Sheets. Instead of manually building graphs, ask Explore to do it for you by typing the request in words.</p></div></div>

It made me realize: Wow, solar isn’t some futuristic concept, it’s already part of the fabric of my town! Seeing that others around me were already benefiting from solar helped me decide to do the same.</p>We want to make it easy for people to make informed decisions about whether to invest in solar. <a href="https://www.google.com/get/sunroof#p=0">Project Sunroof</a> already shows you <a href="https://blog.google/products/maps/shedding-light-solar-potential-all-50-us-states/">solar potential and cost saving for more than 60 million individual homes</a>. Today we’re adding a new feature, <a href="https://www.google.com/get/sunroof/data-explorer/">Project Sunroof Data Explorer</a>, which shows a map of existing solar installations in neighborhoods throughout the United States. Now instead of driving street to street, it’s a little easier to see if houses around you and communities nearby have already gone solar. </div></div>

Cookies vs. oranges. And Madrid vs. manspreaders. Here’s a look at some of the top trending searches from the week of June 2. </p><h3>Nothin’ but net</h3><p>… on Google this week, as people search for details about the <a href="https://trends.google.com/trends/story/US_cu_2Ea_ZVwBAAA7oM_en">NBA Finals</a>. This year marks a third consecutive matchup between the Cavaliers and the Warriors—a first for any two teams in the NBA. Searchers wanted to know who won games 2 and 3, as well as what channel and time the next game was on. Though the Warriors have won every game in the series so far, LeBron James has consistently been at the top of the search pack this week, followed alternately by Steph Curry and Kevin Durant. Finally, if you need a little Basketball 101, you’re not alone: Searchers also asked, “How many games to win the NBA finals?” Four out of seven—and Game 4 tips off tonight.</p><h3>Comey Day</h3><p>The Warriors may be up 3-0, but when it came to must-see TV they had some competition from an unexpected corner this week. Former FBI Director James Comey testified in front of the Senate Intelligence Committee yesterday about the investigation into Russian interference in the presidential election, and people were dialed-in. During his testimony, search interest in “Comey live” spiked 200 percent higher than “NBA finals live” at any other point this month in the U.S. Many wanted to know why Comey was fired, as well as “Who is on the Senate Intelligence Committee?” and “Who is questioning Comey right now?” While Comey was answering questions under oath, others were keeping an eye on the President’s reaction, asking “Is Trump live tweeting now?” But the top question about Comey yesterday wasn’t political. It was “How tall is James Comey?” Answer: Taller than Steph Curry, as tall as LeBron James. </p><p> </p><h3>An a-peeling parody</h3><p>“Orange is the New Black” debuts its fifth season today, but this week was all about Piper Snackman. Inspired by the Netflix series, Sesame Street released a creative skit to teach kids about the benefits of healthy eating. In addition to Piper, “Orange is the New Snack” features adorable muppet versions of Red, Morello and the rest of the OITNB crew—including, inevitably, “Googley eyes.” Most searchers were simply looking for the video to watch the parody (with variations on “Sesame Street is the new snack” and “Sesame Street does Orange is the New Black”), but Sesame Street should be hopeful that some folks took the message to heart. Search interest in “orange snacks” spiked more than 900 percent this week.</p></div></div>

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><h3>Stop the spread</h3><p>This week, Madrid became the most recent city to take a stand on “manspreading” on public transportation. The city’s transit agency will be posting signs on all their buses to remind passengers that taking up more than one seat via their posture is considered bad public transportation behavior. In the U.S., where the NYC subway has had similar signs for three years, people turned to Google to ask “Why is manspreading an issue?” and “is manspreading sexist?” as well as as how to fight it (apart from better signage, we assume). They also wondered, “What do you call manspreading in Spanish?” The answer, as far as we can tell: “el manspreading.” You know what they say—body language is universal.</p><h3>Thank you for being a friend</h3><p>People turned to to social media to celebrate their BFFs yesterday for National Best Friends Day. Many searchers were looking for memes and GIFs to share, while more sentimental types searched for “happy national best friend day quotes.” Skeptical about made-up holidays? Consider that other national days people were searching for this week include “VCR Day,” “Attitude Day” and “Chocolate Ice Cream Day.” Whatever you celebrated this week, search has your back—that’s what friends are for.</p></div></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~4/tvk6GUJQdkI" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Fri, 09 Jun 2017 20:00:00 +0000Fri, 09 Jun 2017 20:00:00 +0000The Official Google BlogFind Pride events on the maphttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~3/nmau-AUVZfg/<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>People everywhere are celebrating Pride this month.

Shadows falling on striped hillsides outside Cusco, Peru. The sky reflecting off city windows in Yerevan, Armenia. Palm trees silhouetted against an evening sky in Santa Cruz, California. A good photograph can transport you anywhere and let you see the world from someone else’s perspective—and #teampixel is going places.</p><p>A few months ago, we asked Pixel users around the world to share their photographs on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/teampixel/?hl=en">Instagram</a> with the hashtag #teampixel. We’ve highlighted these contributions each week on our Instagram account, as well as in an <a href="https://blog.google/products/pixel/turning-teampixel-photography-immersive-art-exhibit/">immersive digital installation</a> on the High Line in New York this spring.</p><p>Now we’re bringing the creativity of #teampixel photographers to the Keyword as well. Starting today and weekly going forward, we’re featuring “Pixel perfect” photographs shared from users around the world. See this week’s collection:</p></div></div>

For the first time in 100 years, a total solar eclipse will cross the United States. It’s not only an opportunity for millions of people to appreciate this rare astronomical event, but a chance for scientists to gain a better understanding of how the sun’s atmosphere behaves. Enter the Eclipse Megamovie Project.</p><p>Led by the University of California at Berkeley, scientists from multiple universities are turning to citizen scientists for help gathering images of the sun and its atmosphere, the corona. Volunteers armed with standard photography equipment—a camera, telephoto lens, and tripod—will capture photos of the eclipse as the moon’s shadow passes over their part of the country. Once this huge dataset is collected, it’s Google’s turn. We’ll use our technology to algorithmically align and process the images submitted by citizen scientists to create a continuous view of the eclipse: the Eclipse Megamovie.<br/></p><p>In addition to the movie, the full dataset of images will be made available to the public and the scientific community. Time will only tell what insights and projects may come from this rich collection.<br/></p><p>If you’ll be on the path of totality and plan on taking pictures, the project needs your help. Head to the <a href="http://eclipsemega.movie">Megamovie website</a> to learn more about how to join and take the best eclipse photographs possible.<br/></p></div></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~4/9M0sN-POUec" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Thu, 08 Jun 2017 16:00:00 +0000Thu, 08 Jun 2017 16:00:00 +0000The Official Google BlogDive into World Oceans Day with Google Earth and Mapshttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~3/DHrkP_ECOn8/<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>This <a href="http://www.worldoceansday.org/">World Oceans Day</a>, explore our oceans and learn from experts leading marine conservation efforts around the world with Street View and Google Earth.</p><p>We hope these stories and sights will inspire you to get involved and help protect our vast and fragile oceans.

But learning how to use new digital tools for reporting can be intimidating or even daunting. This is particularly true in Africa, where digital integration in news and storytelling often remains a challenge. Few journalism institutions offer training programs in digital tools, and news organizations often lack the capability to use new digital technologies in their reporting.</p><p>That’s why we’re supporting a <a href="http://www.academy.codeforafrica.org/">new initiative</a> that will offer journalists across Africa training in skills like mobile reporting, mapping, data visualization, verification, and fact checking. In partnership with the World Bank and <a href="https://codeforafrica.org/">Code For Africa</a>, this project aims to train more than 6,000 journalists by February 2018, in 12 major African cities: Abuja, Cape Town, Casablanca, Dakar, Dar es Salaam, Durban, Freetown, Johannesburg, Kampala, Lagos, Nairobi and Yaounde. By providing the instruction and support to better use available digital tools available, we hope to empower journalists across Africa to produce cutting-edge and compelling reporting.<br/></p><p>Training will take place in three formats:<br/></p><ul><li>Beginning June 15, we’ll hold in-person training sessions on topics ranging from displaying data with an interactive map to effective reporting with a mobile device. In each city, we’ll conduct trainings in three newsrooms and hold trainings twice a month for the duration of the initiative.<br/></li><li>In August, a massive open online course (MOOC) will be made freely available online, covering a range of web concepts and practices for digital journalists.<br/></li><li>We will also hold monthly study groups in collaboration with <a href="https://medium.com/hacks-hackers-africa/about">Hacks/Hackers</a> (a global meetup organization) to provide more focused, in-person instruction. These monthly meetings will take place in Cameroon, Kenya, Morocco, Nigeria, Senegal, Sierra Leone, South Africa, Tanzania, and Uganda.<br/></li></ul><p></p></div></div>

It’s work that never stops and that stretches across a rural area the size of Greater London with 330,000 citizens and three million sheep.</p><p>Two years ago, the Northumberland IT team started to notice strain in their service infrastructure which connects 380 locations across the region, and recent budget cuts made that system feel increasingly unworkable.</p><p>"We had a very big legacy setup that was costing us a fortune in licensing and devices,” says Neil Arnold, Chief Information Officer at Northumberland County Council. “We decided to bring people together in a central hub to make teams more agile."<br/></p><h3>Creating G Suite champions</h3><p></p><p>After evaluation, Arnold and his team chose <a href="https://www.google.com/work/apps/business/">G Suite</a> <a href="https://www.google.com/work/apps/business/">for its functionality and flexibility</a>. The team relied on <a href="http://www.netpremacy.com/">Netpremacy</a>, a Google Cloud partner, to train 300 staff members to educate colleagues on how to use G Suite. Within months, 5,500 corporate users and 11,500 schools users had been set up with G Suite accounts. “Without the support of Netpremacy, we wouldn't have been able to implement as rapidly as we did,” says Arnold. “They recognised the cultural challenges. There was skepticism at first, but users really took the tools to heart when they could see the benefits.”</p><p>From different locations across the region, staff began working collaboratively on <a href="https://www.google.com/work/apps/business/products/docs/">Docs</a> and <a href="https://www.google.com/work/apps/business/products/sheets/">Sheets</a> and inviting others to join. The team saved money by switching to <a href="https://www.google.com/chrome/business/devices/chromebooks.html">Chromebooks</a> and Arnold and his colleagues started using <a href="https://gsuite.google.com/products/hangouts/">Hangouts</a> to join meetings to stay synced on daily work.</p><p>Even firefighters, who were reluctant to try out Hangouts at first, started using it regularly. “Firefighters now use Hangouts at the scene of fires to communicate with central command, monitor the fire, and decide how many vehicles they need,” says Arnold. “The chief fire officer doesn't have to get in his car and drive out to the scene to help — he can do it all from wherever he is.”</p><p></p></div></div>

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><h3>Saving big by going cloud-first</h3><p></p><p>Arnold expects switching to Chromebooks will help Northumberland County Council save close to £2.5 million on licensing and hardware, without sacrificing data security since <a href="https://support.google.com/chromebook/answer/3438631?hl=en">Chromebooks have multiple protection layers</a>.</p><p>The next step for Arnold and his team is to bring G Suite to the classroom. “We've got a lot of schools using <a href="https://www.google.com/edu/classroom/">Google Classroom</a> successfully,” he says, “and we want to roll G Suite out to more schools. It’ll be a big efficiency for them, because many have small file servers on site, that they manage themselves or pay a third-party to manage. <a href="https://www.google.com/work/apps/business/products/drive/">Drive</a> will help them decommission that.”</p><p>Meanwhile, outdated exchange and file servers are being closed down across the council as data is seamlessly transferred to <a href="https://cloud.google.com/">Google Cloud</a>. The new central office for the county is set to open in 2019, and Arnold does not plan to have a datacenter at the new building: “That footprint’s going to reduce over the next three years to virtually nothing.” </p><p>“I've been working in IT for over 30 years and this has been one of the most successful and satisfying projects I've ever been involved in,” says Arnold. “We’ve achieved more than we expected and using G Suite has been a tremendous catalyst for change.”</p><p></p></div></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~4/UkJ8Othy4PM" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Wed, 07 Jun 2017 17:00:00 +0000Wed, 07 Jun 2017 17:00:00 +0000The Official Google BlogCelebrating five years of Campus, a home for startupshttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~3/bJcBuDU7wwQ/<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>We’re big believers in the power of startups to fuel progress and build businesses that make a positive impact—on individuals, communities and economies.

While each location customizes trainings and events to reflect the needs of their city, they have a few key things in common: Anyone can join as a member, host an event for the benefit of local entrepreneurs, or attend educational sessions, all for free. And all of our Campus communities are made of people who see problems as opportunities and then take action to fix them. Founders in Campuses are working to improve the health of older generations with apps like <a href="http://www.kareinn.com/">KareInn</a>, foster interaction between governments with citizens with <a href="http://nama.ai/">Nama</a>, and help babies and parents sleep better with a smart device called <a href="http://whisbear.co.uk/">Whisbear</a>. </p>Together, startups in Campus communities have created more than<a href="http://www.campus.co/report"> 11,000 jobs and raised more than $537 million in funding</a> for entrepreneurs since 2012.

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>Since 2007, Google has mapped imagery of unique locations across 83 countries, including heritage monuments, touristic sites, museums, national parks and transit locations across the globe. In the case of Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park, Tjukurpa warranted a more nuanced approach. For Aṉangu, there is no distinction between the physical and metaphysical, or the animate and inanimate. People, earth, plants and animals are inextricably connected. This means that Uluṟu-Kata Tjuṯa National Park could never be truly represented or understood (virtually or otherwise) without the presence and voices of its people.</p><p>We knew we had to bring these cultural and spiritual dimensions to the Street View experience. So we used the <a href="https://storyspheres.com/uluru/">Story Spheres</a> platform to add immersive audio stories and songs of Aṉangu traditional owners to the 360° Street View imagery. The result is an interactive, audio-visual guided tour, narrated by Sammy Wilson and with song and music by Traditional Owner and Aṉangu Elder, Reggie Uluru.<br/></p></div></div>

UrbanVolt's Light as a Service® solves the problem of companies requiring capital to install LED lighting. This model allowed the company to scale rapidly, but it also meant managing a higher volume of inbound leads. “We needed a solution that would allow us to scale our inbounds and deal flow with ease,” says Edel Kennedy, Head of Marketing at UrbanVolt.</p><p>The UrbanVolt team opted for ProsperWorks for its intuitive design and its seamless integration with G Suite. “ProsperWorks was the clear choice for our team. There was no learning curve since it worked with G Suite, where we spend the majority of our day,” says Kennedy.</p><p>Now, UrbanVolt employees save time because they don’t have to toggle between their CRM and spreadsheets to analyze data. Instead, they use G Suite tools like <a href="https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/prosperworks-crm-custom-r/bcbdocneacmnhkpdekkjjbeajeblmmhd?hl=en-US">Sheets Add-on for ProsperWorks</a> to view opportunities at various stages in the sales cycle, and create advanced dashboards, reports, charts and graphs collaboratively.</p><p></p><p>If you want to get started using ProsperWorks for G Suite at your business, <a href="http://get.prosperworks.com/Webinar-Why-UrbanVolt-Chose-G-Suite-and-ProsperWorks-to-Scale-Their-Business.html">sign up for a free webinar</a> on Wednesday, June 21, 2017 at 9 a.m. PT / 12 p.m. ET.</p></div></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~4/E9V9kifT6DE" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Tue, 06 Jun 2017 19:00:00 +0000Tue, 06 Jun 2017 19:00:00 +0000The Official Google BlogTeaching why, not how: My takeaways from Google’s certification traininghttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~3/cSnFNuhQUyU/<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p><i><b>Editor’s note:</b> Donnie Piercey is a fifth grade social studies teacher and technology integration specialist at <a href="http://www.eminence.kyschools.us/">Eminence Independent Schools</a> in Eminence, KY.

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>I’d bet I’m not the only teacher who’s looked at my room full of students and thought, “This looks like any other classroom on the planet.” I strive to avoid that; my students are special and I want them to feel it every day. But that doesn’t always happen when I’m lecturing and they’re looking at identical worksheets.</p><p>A few years ago I hit a turning point. I wanted more opportunities to work individually with my students, to develop their writing skills, and to help them become better collaborators and communicators. I knew technology could help me achieve this, but I wasn’t totally sure how my students and I could take full advantage of tools like <a href="https://edu.google.com/products/productivity-tools/">G Suite for Education</a>. For example, my students already loved working in Google Docs, but mostly as a substitute to pencil and paper. I thought they could do more with <a href="https://www.google.com/docs/about/">Google Docs</a> to generate ideas, work together and problem solve. This sense of potential drove me to seek out more official professional development opportunities—and complete the <a href="https://edutrainingcenter.withgoogle.com/certification_level1?utm_source=Keyword&utm_medium=blog&utm_campaign=GooglePDWeek">Google Certified Education training.</a><br/></p><p>The simplicity and flexibility of the training made it easy to complete both the Level 1 and Level 2 courses—the videos were easy to follow, and I could go at my own pace. It didn’t feel like mandated professional development. It was actually something I wanted to do.<br/></p><p>After getting certified, I joined a <a href="https://www.google.com/landing/geg/">Google Educator Group</a> (GEG), helping to connect me with a network of tens of thousands of other certified educators around the world. I can send a message to one of my groups, like “I’m trying to figure out a way to help my students understand where important events in history took place using Google Earth,” and learn how other educators are did this in their classrooms.<br/></p><p>For me, training and GEGs have sparked ideas for activities. For example, I decided to have my students create YouTube videos to teach students in other classrooms how to update images of Google Street View to offer a richer view into their communities on Google Maps. My peers inspired me to engage my students with lesson plans that focus on memorable storytelling as well as the subject matter. I’ve learned how to use <a href="https://www.google.com/slides/about/">Google Slides</a> to design better presentations that include videos and images. I can share a presentation with one click and my students can access the material at home.</p></div></div>

<div class="block-paragraph"><div class="rich-text"><p>Outside of lesson planning, the greatest impact of Google certification is the time I’ve saved. I’ve learned shortcuts like tagging a student in a document or using <a href="https://hangouts.google.com/">Hangouts</a> to chat about a question from that day’s class. A few minutes here and there add up, and the extra this time goes into developing relationships—working one on one with students and talking with parents. <br/></p><p>In general, the time I've spent on professional development during the summer and other breaks has been more than made up for by the energy it's injected into my classroom every day. Spending a few hours on professional development during the summer and other breaks is more than worth it. In my district, half of our staff have reached Level 1 certification, and this year I’m working with a cohort on Level 2 as a <a href="http://g.co/educertifiedtrainer">Google Certified Trainer</a>. I see the results every day in my classroom, where I’m no longer lecturing to a room of students reading from the same workbook. The experience is new every time we start a lesson. I look forward to learning more during the summer so I can bring fresh ideas to my new students this fall. Have a great summer!</p></div></div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/blogspot/MKuf/~4/cSnFNuhQUyU" height="1" width="1" alt=""/>Tue, 06 Jun 2017 17:00:00 +0000Tue, 06 Jun 2017 17:00:00 +0000The Official Google BlogWe’ve moved!
