It takes a teacher to engage students, bring the classroom alive and turn classroom concepts into lifelong passions. This week at ISTE, we announced four new ways for these everyday heroes to engage their classes using Google tools. One of these announcements was that Expeditions — virtual reality field trips using Cardboard — is now available to everyone. To get started, all teachers need to do is download the <a href="https://www.google.com/edu/expeditions/" target="_blank">Expeditions app</a> onto a set of devices and choose where in the world they want to take their class. The app is available today for Android and will be available for iPhones and iPads soon.<br /> </i> <br /> <br /> Field trips and school outings create opportunities for students to share new experiences and get them excited about learning, but teachers often lack the resources for these out-of-the-classroom adventures.. Teachers at <a href="http://www.d62.org/aboutus/districtprofile.html" target="_blank">Community Consolidated School District 62</a> wouldn’t let a lack of resources stop them from igniting students’ sense of wonder by exploring the world together. Sarah Murphy, a science teacher at Algonquin Middle School; Elizabeth Moravec, an art teacher at Terrace Elementary School and Orchard Place Elementary School; and Matt Peebles, a fourth-grade teacher at Plainfield Elementary School introduced <a href="https://www.google.com/edu/expeditions/" target="_blank">Google Expeditions</a>. Expeditions are collections of virtual reality panoramas — 360° photo spheres and 3D images — annotated with details, points of interest and questions that make them easy to integrate into curriculum already used in schools.<br /> <br /> Many students at CCSD 62 come from low-income families and may have never traveled outside of their community. But with Expeditions, teachers can take these students on trips of a lifetime and make lesson plans more interactive and meaningful. Teachers at CCSD 62 can apply to use the district’s “traveling suitcase” with all the tools and technology to take students on an Expedition. Read how Sarah, Elizabeth and Matt are encouraging students to become curious learners and establish deeper connections with their surroundings.<br /> <br /> <h3> Encouraging students to ask more questions and take charge of their learning </h3> Since Sarah got an Expeditions kit for her classroom, her students have developed a new love of learning about science. In the past it was difficult for students to visualize the concepts they learned, such as how big a geographical landmark is. Now that Expeditions is an integral part of every unit, or themed area of focus, students have been more engaged and are asking more in-depth questions that show a deeper understanding of the topics.<br /> <br /> For example, Sarah first took her students to the Grand Canyon to show them the processes that formed one of the seven wonders of the world when they were studying Earth History. When they put on Google Cardboard, students started becoming curious about new aspects of the landmark and asked questions like “How did it form?” and “What do the stripes mean?”.<br /> <br /> “Students’ faces lit up when they saw the size of the Grand Canyon,” Sarah says. “By virtually traveling there, they better understood that the stripes are different layers of rock. Expeditions encourage students to observe, explore and be curious. For them to be successful in life, they need to be curious and be able to explore on their own.”<br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFn8XKoz_rlpFjq7DsGAFgS4FQunJkLBSvoBLfC92RhcdqgXG07dtDriiCOiO2nDWxOTwuTvKS6yzeYzsLG0gHrB4m4wyf9OfG5EVXAnE081mzaex7dvkyt0_SAn5N6U1nhyjNpxxSR1nC/s1600/iste-expeditions-3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiFn8XKoz_rlpFjq7DsGAFgS4FQunJkLBSvoBLfC92RhcdqgXG07dtDriiCOiO2nDWxOTwuTvKS6yzeYzsLG0gHrB4m4wyf9OfG5EVXAnE081mzaex7dvkyt0_SAn5N6U1nhyjNpxxSR1nC/s640/iste-expeditions-3.png" width="640" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Students in Sarah's class look through Google Cardboard, engaging with the "Into the stratosphere" Expedition</td></tr> </tbody></table> Sarah also encourages students to discover their passion for learning and science by letting them lead Expeditions. When students lead instead of the teacher, they ask each other different types of questions, sparking meaningful conversations. They’re also sharing their knowledge after exploring diverse ecosystems in small groups. For example, a group of students studying the desert shared what they learned during Expeditions with students focusing on the rainforest, and vice versa. This personalized learning and peer-to-peer sharing encourages students to be active learners and take ownership of their education.<br /> <br /> <h3> Inspiring students to approach art with a new lens</h3> In her art classes, Elizabeth often shows students photos of art, sculptures and monuments to inspire their own creations, but when she had the opportunity to use Google Expeditions, she knew she could provide them with a “larger than life” source of inspiration. Elizabeth chose the Colosseum Expedition, which fit nicely into the current unit about monuments.<br /> <br /> “Expeditions aid in creativity,” Elizabeth says. “Students are thinking about their surroundings and the impact they have on their environment.”<br /> <br /> Since Elizabeth doesn’t have an Expeditions kit permanently in her classroom like Sarah, she’s found creative ways to recreate the virtual reality experience using <a href="https://www.google.com/maps/streetview/" target="_blank">Google Street View</a> and <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzuqhhs6NWbgTzMuM09WKDQ" target="_blank">YouTube 360</a> videos. With Elizabeth’s DIY virtual reality, students experienced driving across the Golden Gate Bridge in an Indie 500 car. Others went to the top of the Space Needle and said it felt like they were free birds soaring above the world. After these experiences, which many students couldn’t imagine doing in real life, students added more detail to their drawings, analyzed their work more and made deeper connections when thinking about how objects relate to the world. By using virtual reality-like experiences, Elizabeth is giving students a new source of inspiration for their art and more insights and tools to express their thoughts and reflections.<br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy0cKMQCFTlI7TrJgVeZ8GIUuItcykkIoHS7oeti9JVqq1AqPRIUAyWSbZAs-G8MQoWxd43b6bRx13eeNmcguFrUqLF6nGo1TRyV4Qih631gcRkkTTfiE3I3n5xiityQoORi4_a0wk3vai/s1600/iste-expeditions-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhy0cKMQCFTlI7TrJgVeZ8GIUuItcykkIoHS7oeti9JVqq1AqPRIUAyWSbZAs-G8MQoWxd43b6bRx13eeNmcguFrUqLF6nGo1TRyV4Qih631gcRkkTTfiE3I3n5xiityQoORi4_a0wk3vai/s640/iste-expeditions-2.jpg" width="640" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Artwork students created after "visiting" various locations using Google Street View and YouTube 360 videos</td></tr> </tbody></table> <h3> Applying classroom concepts to real-world situations </h3> Math concepts can be abstract, and while students may see its application to calculating a tip at a restaurant or measuring ingredients in the kitchen, they might not always see the more fun uses.

Teachers at <a href="http://www.d62.org/aboutus/districtprofile.html" target="_blank">Community Consolidated School District 62</a> wouldn’t let a lack of resources stop them from igniting students’ sense of wonder by exploring the world together.

Follow along here and on <a href="http://twitter.com/googleforedu" target="_blank">Twitter</a> for the latest news and updates.<br /> </i> <br /> <br /> Teachers are great communicators, collaborators, creators and critical thinkers. It takes a teacher to empower students with these skills and create the leaders of our future. As technology becomes an increasingly integral component of our classrooms, the role of teachers becomes even more important.<br /> <br /> Today at ISTE, we’re announcing four more ways for these everyday heroes to engage their classes and empower their students using Google tools. Look out for a deeper dive on each of these launches on the blog throughout this week.<br /> <br /> <b>Bring curriculum to life: introducing the Expeditions app</b><br /> Since we launched the beta Expeditions Pioneer Program in September of 2015, more than <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MQ9yG_QfDA" target="_blank">one million students</a> across 11 countries have taken one of our virtual reality trips. Today, we’re making Expeditions available to everyone. To get started, all teachers need to do is download the Expeditions app onto a set of devices. With more than 200 Expeditions to choose from, students can journey far and wide, learning from immersive new experiences. Our content offering has also grown and now includes Expeditions made by established educational content providers including Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. Pearson is beginning work on Expeditions content as well. The app is available today for <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.vr.expeditions" target="_blank">Android</a> and will be available for iPhones and iPads soon.<br /> <br /> While Expeditions can be used with many of the devices schools or students already have — either smartphones with Google Cardboard or tablets in 2D full screen mode — <a href="http://www.bestbuy.com/GoogleExpeditions" target="_blank">Best Buy Education</a> will also be making Expeditions kits available for schools to purchase. These kits will contain everything teachers need to bring their classes on amazing Expeditions: a tablet, virtual reality viewers and a router to connect them all. Kits are available for pre-order and will ship in time for back-to-school. We’ll also publish clear specs for partners interested in working with us to create their own kits.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbch0LbCg-jfTwaW3JU6G90eYK6RODUDYpbbO1klxx3Y_CggV_m9N968JuvVmnOzHTXDeCoWaP2PHJkLWBRzexZyL40wnNoVLF6RwfBz8jKGQqqPTxjDXAu3O-RdKPR8vQ13JSz0SgNwHO/s1600/Expeditions-TeacherView-noCopy.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbch0LbCg-jfTwaW3JU6G90eYK6RODUDYpbbO1klxx3Y_CggV_m9N968JuvVmnOzHTXDeCoWaP2PHJkLWBRzexZyL40wnNoVLF6RwfBz8jKGQqqPTxjDXAu3O-RdKPR8vQ13JSz0SgNwHO/s640/Expeditions-TeacherView-noCopy.gif" width="640" /></a></div> <b>Empower student-driven classrooms: Google Cast for Education </b><br /> Collaboration is key to student success, but in most classrooms today the biggest screen in the room is out of reach for students. If students want to share their screens with the class, they have to physically connect their devices to the classroom projector. When teachers present, they’re tied to the projector at the front of the room. Educators are eager to overcome this barrier, so much so that wireless screen sharing for schools was one of the top features requested by teachers in 2015.<br /> <br /> Today we’re announcing <a href="//g.co/castforedu" target="_blank">Google Cast for Education</a>, a free Chrome app that allows students and teachers to share their screens wirelessly from everywhere in the classroom. Cast for Education carries video and audio across complex school networks, has built-in controls for teachers and works with <a href="//www.google.com/edu/classroom" target="_blank">Google Classroom</a> so it’s easy to invite your students.

It takes a teacher to empower students with these skills and create the leaders of our future. As technology becomes an increasingly integral component of our classrooms, the role of teachers becomes even more important.<br /> <br /> Today at ISTE, we’re announcing four more ways for these everyday heroes to engage their classes and empower their students using Google tools. Look out for a deeper dive on each of these launches on the blog throughout this week.<br /> <br /> <b>Bring curriculum to life: introducing the Expeditions app</b><br /> Since we launched the beta Expeditions Pioneer Program in September of 2015, more than <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MQ9yG_QfDA" target="_blank">one million students</a> across 11 countries have taken one of our virtual reality trips. Today, we’re making Expeditions available to everyone. To get started, all teachers need to do is download the Expeditions app onto a set of devices. With more than 200 Expeditions to choose from, students can journey far and wide, learning from immersive new experiences. Our content offering has also grown and now includes Expeditions made by established educational content providers including Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. Pearson is beginning work on Expeditions content as well. The app is available today for <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.vr.expeditions" target="_blank">Android</a> and will be available for iPhones and iPads soon.<br /> <br /> While Expeditions can be used with many of the devices schools or students already have — either smartphones with Google Cardboard or tablets in 2D full screen mode — <a href="http://www.bestbuy.com/GoogleExpeditions" target="_blank">Best Buy Education</a> will also be making Expeditions kits available for schools to purchase. These kits will contain everything teachers need to bring their classes on amazing Expeditions: a tablet, virtual reality viewers and a router to connect them all. Kits are available for pre-order and will ship in time for back-to-school. We’ll also publish clear specs for partners interested in working with us to create their own kits.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbch0LbCg-jfTwaW3JU6G90eYK6RODUDYpbbO1klxx3Y_CggV_m9N968JuvVmnOzHTXDeCoWaP2PHJkLWBRzexZyL40wnNoVLF6RwfBz8jKGQqqPTxjDXAu3O-RdKPR8vQ13JSz0SgNwHO/s1600/Expeditions-TeacherView-noCopy.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbch0LbCg-jfTwaW3JU6G90eYK6RODUDYpbbO1klxx3Y_CggV_m9N968JuvVmnOzHTXDeCoWaP2PHJkLWBRzexZyL40wnNoVLF6RwfBz8jKGQqqPTxjDXAu3O-RdKPR8vQ13JSz0SgNwHO/s640/Expeditions-TeacherView-noCopy.gif" width="640" /></a></div> <b>Empower student-driven classrooms: Google Cast for Education </b><br /> Collaboration is key to student success, but in most classrooms today the biggest screen in the room is out of reach for students. If students want to share their screens with the class, they have to physically connect their devices to the classroom projector. When teachers present, they’re tied to the projector at the front of the room. Educators are eager to overcome this barrier, so much so that wireless screen sharing for schools was one of the top features requested by teachers in 2015.<br /> <br /> Today we’re announcing <a href="//g.co/castforedu" target="_blank">Google Cast for Education</a>, a free Chrome app that allows students and teachers to share their screens wirelessly from everywhere in the classroom. Cast for Education carries video and audio across complex school networks, has built-in controls for teachers and works with <a href="//www.google.com/edu/classroom" target="_blank">Google Classroom</a> so it’s easy to invite your students. And because the app runs on the teacher’s existing computer, it doesn’t require new hardware.

The same cloud computing infrastructure that we use to run our search engine; powerful apps and services to help you get work done <span id="docs-internal-guid-b0f01e00-208a-cb71-9954-f5d9d6236c06"><span style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 14.6667px; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">–</span></span> fast; simple, secure platforms to access everything, wherever you are.<br /> <br /> While we have much more in store, it’s been a busy year and we’ve hit some great milestones over the last twelve months:<br /> <br /> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li>More than one million paying organizations are <a href="http://googleforwork.blogspot.com/2015/09/making-google-drive-safest-place-for.html" target="_blank">actively using</a> Google Drive, including companies like The New York Times, Uber, Fossil, Wedding Wire and BBVA.</li> </ul> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li><a href="//google.com/apps" target="_blank">Google Apps for Work</a> is proving to be the next generation tool of choice: according to a <a href="http://blog.bettercloud.com/google-apps-vs-office-365/" target="_blank">Better Cloud study</a>, Millennials (aged 18-34) are 55% more likely to use Google Apps than alternatives. It’s cost effective, too: Forrester Research’s Total Economic Impact calculator shows that companies using Google Apps see a <a href="https://www.google.com/work/apps/business/learn-more/forrester-tei-report-2015.html" target="_blank">304 percent return on investment</a>.</li> </ul> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li>We’ve introduced groundbreaking new services with <a href="https://cloud.google.com/" target="_blank">Google Cloud Platform</a>, such as <a href="https://cloud.google.com/storage/docs/nearline" target="_blank">Nearline</a> and <a href="https://cloud.google.com/bigtable/docs/" target="_blank">Cloud Bigtable</a> for storage and <a href="http://kubernetes.io/" target="_blank">Kubernetes</a>, an open-source container orchestration system. In total, we’ve added over 30 products to our stack, and our online community has nearly doubled.</li> </ul> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li>Chromebooks are now the <a href="http://googleforeducation.blogspot.com/2014/11/with-chromebooks-students-find-new-ways.html" target="_blank">best-selling device</a> in the US for K-12 education, according to a report from IDC.</li> </ul> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li>More than 10,000 companies are testing, trialling and using <a href="https://www.android.com/work/" target="_blank">Android for Work</a> following its launch in February. In July, we added carriers such as AT&T and Verizon to our partner program and introduced a new class of devices for regulated industries, like the Blackphone by Silent Circle and Samsung's KNOX devices.</li> </ul> <br /> And the best is yet to come. Cloud computing will continue to get more powerful, and we’re only at the beginning of what machine learning can do to help businesses and people contextualize data. <br /> <br /> Imagine an even smarter digital assistant that can surface the information you need at just the right time and help you manage your schedule for stress-free productivity. Virtual reality products, such as <a href="https://www.google.com/edu/expeditions/" target="_blank">Expeditions</a>, are going to help us learn and work in exciting new ways. And finally, more and more of the objects around us will connect to the internet, enabling more efficient information transfer and actionable data for businesses than ever. These advances will affect all aspects of our lives, including work, and the possibilities are great. We’ll keep our focus forward, so that wherever we’re going, we’re always embarking on what’s next. </div> </noscript> </div> </div> <div class='share'> <span class='gplus-share social-wrapper' data-href='https://plus.google.com/share?url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2015/09/one-year-in-and-just-getting-started.html'> <img alt='Share on Google+' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/google_plus/2x/ic_w_post_gplus_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='twitter-custom social-wrapper' data-href='http://twitter.com/share?text=Official Google Cloud Blog:One year in, and just getting started&url=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2015/09/one-year-in-and-just-getting-started.html&via=gsuite'> <img alt='Share on Twitter' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_twitter_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> <span class='fb-custom social-wrapper' data-href='https://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://cloud.googleblog.com/2015/09/one-year-in-and-just-getting-started.html'> <img alt='Share on Facebook' height='24' src='https://www.gstatic.com/images/icons/material/system/2x/post_facebook_black_24dp.png' width='24'/> </span> </div> <div class='comment-container'> <i class='comment-img material-icons'>  </i> <span class='cmt_count_iframe_holder' data-count='2' data-onclick='' data-post-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2015/09/one-year-in-and-just-getting-started.html' data-url='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2015/09/one-year-in-and-just-getting-started.html' style='color: #4184F3;'></span> </div> <div class='post-footer'> <div class='cmt_iframe_holder' data-href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2015/09/one-year-in-and-just-getting-started.html' data-viewtype='FILTERED_POSTMOD'></div> <a href='https://plus.google.com/112374322230920073195' rel='author' style='display:none;'> Google </a> <div class='label-footer'> <span class='labels-caption'> Labels: </span> <span class='labels'> <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Android%20for%20Work' rel='tag'> Android for Work </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Google%20Apps%20for%20Work' rel='tag'> Google Apps for Work </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Google%20Cloud%20Platform' rel='tag'> Google Cloud Platform </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Google%20Expeditions' rel='tag'> Google Expeditions </a> , <a class='label' href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/search/label/Google%20for%20Work' rel='tag'> Google for Work </a> </span> </div> </div> </div> <div class='post' data-id='3768953368224833579' itemscope='' itemtype='http://schema.org/BlogPosting'> <h2 class='title' itemprop='name'> <a href='https://cloud.googleblog.com/2015/09/bring-virtual-reality-field-trips-to-your-school-with-Google-Expeditions.html' itemprop='url' title='Bring virtual reality field trips to your school with Google Expeditions'> Bring virtual reality field trips to your school with Google Expeditions </a> </h2> <div class='post-header'> <div class='published'> <span class='publishdate' itemprop='datePublished'> Monday, September 28, 2015 </span> </div> </div> <div class='post-body'> <div class='post-content' itemprop='articleBody'> <script type='text/template'> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> <span class="byline-author">Posted by David Quaid, Software Engineer, Google Expeditions</span> <br /> <br /> <i>(Cross-posted on the Official Google <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2015/09/bring-virtual-reality-field-trips-to.html" target="_blank">Blog</a>.)</i><br /> <br /> At the Bronx Latin School in New York City, teacher Katrina Roman says the topic of ancient history doesn’t usually set students abuzz.

I always love this event because it’s our chance to shine the spotlight on our amazing global developer community – the creative coders who are building what’s next. As we think about developers, along with our own products and tools, we’re focused on the big opportunities of the future: provide the best-in-class mobile platform, help the next billion users by putting the power of the Internet in their hands and solving big problems to make people’s lives better through machine learning and access to great products. There were lots of exciting announcements this year, from <a href="http://insidesearch.blogspot.com/2015/05/now-on-tap.html" target="_blank">Now on Tap</a> to a completely new <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2015/05/picture-this-fresh-approach-to-photos.html" target="_blank">Photos</a> experience. If you haven’t already, be sure to watch the <a href="https://events.google.com/io2015/schedule?sid=__keynote__#day1/__keynote__" target="_blank">keynote</a> given by Sundar Pichai, SVP of Products and read the <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2015/05/io-2015-mobile-revolution.html" target="_blank">official blog post</a>. For cool scenes and coverage from the floor, check out our <a href="https://plus.sandbox.google.com/collection/ckVUb" target="_blank">Google for Work at I/O Collection</a> on Google+.<br /> <br /> I’m particularly excited that many of the announcements we made will impact the world of Google for Work and Google for Education. To highlight a few:<br /> <br /> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li><i>Android M: </i>Android’s latest release packs hundreds of performance improvements, including better battery life, easier app linking and streamlined permissions. And with our recent launch of Android for Work, the momentum for Android in the workplace is growing.</li> </ul> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li><i>Firebase: </i>One of the key themes of this year’s I/O is empowering developers with the tools they need to thrive. To that end, <a href="http://googlecloudplatform.blogspot.com/2015/05/Mobile-First-Development-in-the-Cloud.html" target="_blank">Firebase</a> makes building great mobile and web apps easier than ever. It manages the infrastructure on the backend on behalf of mobile developers so they can focus on the high-value stuff: delivering an awesome user experience on the front end. Firebase addresses key mobile use cases, including native support for offline usage when a network connection is unavailable, and automatic data synchronization in real time to the cloud and across diverse client devices. Nearly 200,000 developers rely on Firebase already, and I’m confident it will help accelerate development of mobile apps, including enterprise apps.

I always love this event because it’s our chance to shine the spotlight on our amazing global developer community – the creative coders who are building what’s next. As we think about developers, along with our own products and tools, we’re focused on the big opportunities of the future: provide the best-in-class mobile platform, help the next billion users by putting the power of the Internet in their hands and solving big problems to make people’s lives better through machine learning and access to great products. There were lots of exciting announcements this year, from <a href="http://insidesearch.blogspot.com/2015/05/now-on-tap.html" target="_blank">Now on Tap</a> to a completely new <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2015/05/picture-this-fresh-approach-to-photos.html" target="_blank">Photos</a> experience. If you haven’t already, be sure to watch the <a href="https://events.google.com/io2015/schedule?sid=__keynote__#day1/__keynote__" target="_blank">keynote</a> given by Sundar Pichai, SVP of Products and read the <a href="http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2015/05/io-2015-mobile-revolution.html" target="_blank">official blog post</a>. For cool scenes and coverage from the floor, check out our <a href="https://plus.sandbox.google.com/collection/ckVUb" target="_blank">Google for Work at I/O Collection</a> on Google+.<br /> <br /> I’m particularly excited that many of the announcements we made will impact the world of Google for Work and Google for Education. To highlight a few:<br /> <br /> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li><i>Android M: </i>Android’s latest release packs hundreds of performance improvements, including better battery life, easier app linking and streamlined permissions. And with our recent launch of Android for Work, the momentum for Android in the workplace is growing.</li> </ul> <ul style="text-align: left;"> <li><i>Firebase: </i>One of the key themes of this year’s I/O is empowering developers with the tools they need to thrive. To that end, <a href="http://googlecloudplatform.blogspot.com/2015/05/Mobile-First-Development-in-the-Cloud.html" target="_blank">Firebase</a> makes building great mobile and web apps easier than ever. It manages the infrastructure on the backend on behalf of mobile developers so they can focus on the high-value stuff: delivering an awesome user experience on the front end. Firebase addresses key mobile use cases, including native support for offline usage when a network connection is unavailable, and automatic data synchronization in real time to the cloud and across diverse client devices. Nearly 200,000 developers rely on Firebase already, and I’m confident it will help accelerate development of mobile apps, including enterprise apps.
