Hello from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

Just learned about this group; what a great resource! This is my 11th year in the technology field. My role is "technology integration specialist" - but I wear many hats. One being a Google Admin. Looking forward to learning and growing with others about the ever-changing world of Google.

Welcome @theitpersin! I had that tech specialist role before moving to a Director role. How many teachers are you responsible for supporting? What are some EDU updates you're looking forward to for the start of the school year?

We are a pretty small district - probably around 160 teachers, but over 200 people if you count our other staff. Some ISTE updates that I'm excited to learn more about are: Google Vids, eSignatures in Docs and PDFs &, specifically for our school, the release of Classroom grade export to PowerTeacher Pro. Lots of other good ones as well!

Great updates - eSignatures is an exciting possibility. This reminds me - does anyone use Approvals in Docs? We had a recent scare with formmule acting up in the past month. I can't seem to get the same functionality with Approvals, Gmail Merge, or other applications as we have with formmule and Autocrat (to a lesser extent).
