Why eduGOOGdroid?

The reality is that it is difficult to get started, make the payments, and write articles. I stopped producing the podcast ACEd Tech because I am a father first, and I am an educator also.

The focus of eduGOOGdroid is educational technology with a emphasis on Google & Android. Thus, consider eduGOOGdroid if you want to make a presence online but don’t have the time or money to maintain a blog on educational technology.

I do not offer any compensation.

How do I start my own blog?

If the above doesn’t apply to you, then you should create your own blog. I advise you use EduBlogs if you are trying it out. You can use Blogger, however, it is blocked in several schools.

Topics

Although I, Mr.G, am a Google for Education Certified Trainer & Innovator, you can write about anything educational technology. However, it is appreciated but not required to tie it to Google, Android, or Chrome.

No Compensation

I offer nothing in return other than a space to publish your work. On that note, if you have an ad that you would like to place on your article, you can include a link like the Amazon Affiliate program, for example…

What to Include

Title

The title should be in the third person point of view and descriptive.

Header Image

Sample Header Image

JPG format image with size should be 800px by 450px. Also, set it as the featured image.

This image will be on two places, somwhere at the top or middle of the article, and as the featured image (displayed at the top of the article).

You can create a Canva account for educators to create amazing graphics.
