  • EDT127 Quizizz Becomes Wayground, Google Classroom Add-ons, Edpuzzle Quizizz and Slides, a Soapbox, and more!
    Jun 26 2025

    What do a name change, a new font, and fewer browser tabs have in common? In this episode, I unpack the Quizizz rebrand to Wayground, share Edpuzzle’s leap beyond video with new interactive tools, highlight Google Classroom’s latest add-on integrations, and spotlight Google Fonts’ Playwrite—a typeface built to support handwriting instruction. Plus, in the Soapbox moment, I reflect on my son learning to drive and the lessons we’re both picking up along the way.

    How do we make tech processes easier for students—and teachers—to follow? In this episode, I chat with Courtney Watson from friEdTechnology about strategies for creating clear, bite-sized tech instructions using tools like Scribe, iorad, Canva, and Adobe Express. We explore ways to lower the cognitive load and boost confidence in tech-rich classrooms. Plus, I share new feature updates in Book Creator, Padlet, and NotebookLM that support accessibility, flexibility, and efficiency.
