Using Language tool in spreadsheets

Posted on 16 de December de 202416 de December de 2024 by Jaume Feliu

Spell checkers have evolved a lot, and I think one that works very well is Language Tool.

It is an extension that is installed in the browser and, from then on, it warns you of spelling and grammatical errors in almost all the texts you write in your browser: documents, presentations, blogs, etc. If you do not have it installed, you can do so at this link.

But it does not work on spreadsheets. It does not recognize the cells of spreadsheets as text, and this means that it does not mark the errors. In the educational field (and also in the business field), this is a major limitation, since we use spreadsheets a lot: to make notebooks to monitor the progress of students, end-of-term bulletins, school organization, etc.

Let’s talk about smartphone, families, teenagers and school

Posted on 7 de February de 20208 de February de 2020 by Jaume Feliu

I often make dynamics with the students to deal with issues of digital competence, especially issues of security, responsibility, image, etc. Last week we played 3rd of ESO and talked about the excessive use of screens. They themselves were aware and, specifically, 75% believed that it would be advisable to reduce the use.

What surprised me most was the answer to the question, “Do you have or have you had any parental control applications installed?”

CLASS-MON Update: Self-Assessment of Attitude and Work in the Classroom

Posted on 1 de November de 20199 de April de 2020 by Jaume Feliu

Almost a month ago I introduced the CLASS-MON spreadsheet Add-on. I have to admit that it has been better received than I expected. It is currently installed by just over 11000 users (source: G Suite Marketplace). Today I present an update that basically improves two aspects.
