Google Cardboard in the Classroom

-
About a month ago I purchased 2 sets of Google Cardboard view finders from Google. I've had a lot of fun playing with different Virtual Reality (VR) apps to see which ones would be best for the classroom. Google Street View is hands down the best app I've found so far.

The nice thing about the "Publish to the web" setting is once the document is published, any changes to the document will automatically update to the published version without the need of resharing the published link. This can be used in Google Slides with a presentation or an interactive presentation. Also, data in a spreadsheet can be displayed, updated as needed, and published to the web for others to view without sharing the spreadsheet or document.
