Switch on Learning (description)

At the Windsor-Essex Catholic District School Board, we are Switching on Learning by integrating Google’s powerful ecosystem into every classroom. This blog is a dedicated space for sharing the ideas, methodologies, and digital tools that transform the modern educational experience. Our Digital Toolkit We empower educators and students by leveraging a robust, collaborative environment: Google Workspace for Education: Driving seamless collaboration through Docs, Drive, and Classroom. The Power of AI: Utilizing Gemini and integrated AI features to personalize learning and spark creativity. Data-Driven Assessment: Using MarkBook to track student growth with precision and transparency. The Process of Learning: Leveraging Revision History to emphasize growth, iteration, and the visible journey of a student's work. From interactive Chrome tools to digital storytelling, we aren't just using tech—we’re using it to bridge gaps, foster global collaboration, and future-proof our students' skills.

Amazing Race Global Project

Global Students Global Perspectives presents...
Amazing Race Global Project

Take your students on a global adventure and visit pit stops created by teachers and students across the globe.   

There are currently 40 pit stops featuring 16 countries with additional pit stops added daily.

How do you participate?


Click bit.ly/GSGPamazingrace to visit the Amazing Race Website. Click on a place holder of your choice:



Once you click the link you will be directed to a Google Slide Show created by students and/or teachers in each respective location. I recommend you select “Present” view for the best visual appearance.

Each presentation is slightly different but typically they will contain: a brief video, facts about the location, a brainteaser and a link to a Google Form where students will complete a very simple quiz about the information presented.   


Once the form is completed and submitted the participant will receive an email with a PDF attachment of the passport stamp for that particular location.

Where shall we travel to next?
