Gamify Searching Google Drive

Google Drive Badge

Want to learn how to search Google Drive? I am presenting at the NJECC Conference in January. I thought I would use this as a chance to try out gamified Professional Development. One of my sessions is on “Searching Google Drive.” For this I utilized the template I posted earlier for having PD participants level up and earn badges.

The Template

Searching Google Drive

I have listed some challenges (tasks) for searching your Google Drive. As you complete the tasks you will want to place an X in the left hand column. This should allow you to LEVEL up as you complete the challenges.Gamified Google Search Alice Keeler gamification

Badge Display

Look at the bottom of the spreadsheet for the “Badge Display” tab. This will show you the badges you earned completing the tasks. You can print this page if you wish.
