Check it out over at appsevents.com and we can also bring one to your school which is a great way to build a Google community amongst your staff to support each other, plus increase the profile of your school.
This podcast is also brought to you by Acer for Education. People ask us what Chromebooks we recommend for schools and after trying them all we always recommend Acer.
We’ve been to Acer HQ in Taiwan to be part of product discussions and they are genuinely the best thought out, and most importantly durable devices out there for schools to use.
They are always innovating, including the first tablet running Chrome and the first convertible touch screen Chromebook. The latest version is the Spin 11 with Stylus and 2 cameras and we highly recommend it!
They also of course have a full range of windows laptops and for eSports fans their Predator gaming range is second to none.
