4 Ways to Digitize Daily Announcements

Daily announcements over the intercom system have been a traditional means of communication within a a school for many years. Advances in technology have now given schools the ability to create and disseminate daily announcements both in and outside of school in a multitude of ways. Let's take a look at four ways your school can leverage Google tools to get the word out about daily happenings...

• Google Docs provides a great opportunity to publish daily type-written announcements that can be organized by date, embedded on a website, and accessible to stakeholders on Google Drive. 
• Google Slides can be utilized during the daily announcement process to highlight key information and important events. The slide decks can be displayed on a projector screen or casted to a large monitor. 
• Youtube can help enhance a school's ability to make daily announcements more personalized and provide a viewing option for people. Students can be part of this process and record the announcements each day. Viewers can watch on a projector screen, monitor, or personal device. 
• Google Sites can help with daily announcement by organizing Google Docs and Youtube content so consumers can access current and past information. 

Consider evolving your daily announcements so that school stakeholders can stay current with daily happenings through various Google apps. Remember, if you don't tell your school's story someone else will and could be wrong.
