Google Meet began rolling out another new feature last week: the ability to Mute all. This option may not be quite to you yet, but watch for it the next time you hold a virtual meeting with your students!

To find it:

1. Click on "Show everyone."
2. Select "Mute all."

That's it!

What's a Google question you have but have been afraid to ask? Help me put together a presentation by asking your question(s) on this form! While email addresses are collected, it's only so that your response can be emailed to you and I can send the presentation to you when it's done! No question is too basic or too advanced - help me help you by sending them all to me.

In January, I presented a webinar for itslearning's France division in French, the first time my two worlds had collided quite so neatly and amazingly. Next month, I have been asked to do the same thing, but for the German market.

Guess what? I DON'T SPEAK GERMAN!

But, while working with the team, I discovered that subtitles could be translated in PowerPoint without having to use the online O365 PowerPoint and without using the Microsoft Translator app (provided of course that everyone attending speaks the same language).

In the Slide Show tab of PowerPoint, go to Captions and Subtitles. You have the option to choose both the input and output language of the subtitles. This is available in both versions of PowerPoint (the downloaded program and the online O365 version).
