Tired of Rubistar rubrics? Want to use Goobric but don't want to create your own rubric from scratch? In this episode, learn how to use Tech4Learning's rubric maker to create excellent rubrics that can be used with Goobric, Doctopus, and Google classroom. Tech4Learning rubrics offer some great topics for working collaboratively, such as teamwork and cooperation. The best part is that these rubrics can easily be pasted into a Google spreadsheet for use with Andrew Stillman's awesome Goobric extension.

Did you get carried away with Chrome extensions?
Have you gotten a little too carried away with all of the awesome Chrome extensions? If so, your Chrome search field may become too small, especially if you work in split screen. To fix this, place your cursor on the right-hand side of the search field. It will turn into a 2 headed arrow. Drag the arrow to the right and your extensions will collapse. You can access them by clicking on the >> arrows on the right-hand side of the browser.
