					<description><![CDATA[A short while back I was asked to speak at an event about ways that we can prepare students for the future of work.

I signed up for everything I could try, out of an excited curiosity and a hopeful expectation that the social web had the power to bring people together in ways that were previously impossible.

So it&#8217;s not surprising that schools would want to know exactly what comes with the &#8230; <p class="link-more"><a href="https://chrisbetcher.com/2025/04/what-do-you-get-with-workspace-plus/" class="more-link">Continue reading<span class="screen-reader-text"> "What do you get with Workspace Plus?"</span></a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Lots of educators use Google Workspace at their school, but many are unaware that Workspace comes in three different editions, each with a slightly (or substantially) different set of features. The three editions are Fundamentals, Standard and Plus. In a future post I want to unpack the additional features in the Plus edition of Workspace &#8230; <p class="link-more"><a href="https://chrisbetcher.com/2025/04/the-journey-from-google-apps-to-g-suite-to-workspace-plus/" class="more-link">Continue reading<span class="screen-reader-text"> "The Journey from Google Apps to G Suite to Workspace Plus"</span></a></p>]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Last November Google announced that it was making its Gemini chat app available to students aged 13+. This means that while it&#8217;s still not for use by primary age students, it is, generally speaking, available to most high school students.
