This is the first in a planned series of posts that each focus on a tool that will be useful to both students and teachers in a BYOD context. The plan is that each posts explores an application or accessory that will really be useful and easy to use. This first one looks at an Optical Character Reader (OCR).

This is a great toll from Google. You can use Google Keep to transcribe text from a document. This is a time saving tip and  converts paper docs to digital format that can be accessed anywhere. You need to open Google keep and add a new note. From there add a picture of the text then click on the picture. Click on the snowman (3 dots) select "Grab image text". Simply choose  Tools, Keep Notepad then you will be able to insert it into Google slides. This is great for older resources that we know works with our students that now can be used in Google Suite applications.
