Menifee Union School District is fortunate to have Google Apps for Education available to teachers, students, and staff. This helps us communicate, collaborate, and easily share documents.

Google Slides, the GAFE solution for presentation slide decks, just got a useful upgrade on May 4, 2016. Google Slides now has a Presenter View, which lets the presenter see any notes and preview the upcoming slide. The Presenter View also allows the presenter to start an audience Q&A session, where audience members will be given a short URL to post questions to the presenter. Finally, Google Slides presentation mode now has a built-in laser pointer to help presenters focus their audience on a particular item.

You can see a demonstration of these new features on this video from the Free Tech for Teachers blog.
