An Emoji Education
An Emoji Education

Get schooled on emojis! Emojis can play a role in communication, productivity, creativity, and learning. When you think of emojis as pictures you can type, you can begin to picture the possibilities! Check out some great emoji tools, resources, and ideas.

There is not an emoji for everything, so symbolically representing vocabulary can be a stretch—a really big thinking stretch when you’re the one developing the representation. It can take a while to figure out how to clearly show a vocabulary term with emojis, which is why symbolically representing vocabulary can be an interesting learning activity.
Headliner.app is a free web-based video maker. There’s no trial, no watermark, and no length limitations. It’s just free. Headliner is not quite a full video editor—it’s designed to illustrate audio, somewhat like Adobe Spark Video. At headliner.app, you upload audio and then add media, which can be a combination of images and videos. You can also add text. Automatically generated captions from the uploaded audio are shown at the bottom of the screen. You can edit or turn off the captions.
Google Chrome can remember your passwords for you—making it easier to use a different (and complex) password for each website. If signed in, your passwords are synced with your Google Account and accessible on other devices, including Chrome on iOS and Android.
Working on a computer and want to insert emojis? You can see a listing of emojis at emojicopy.com. Click an emoji to add it to the lineup. Click the copy button after your lineup is complete and then paste anywhere you can type.
If you’ve got a lot of links that you access frequently, then you might consider adding folders to Chrome’s bookmarks bar. Organizing links to web pages and online documents into folders in the bookmarks bar can give you access to those items in two clicks.
👀 How about adding visual cues to your digital calendar with emojis? Since emojis can be entered anywhere you can enter text, you can add emojis to calendar events. I include a meaningful emoji that serves as an icon for each event in my calendar. When I view my calendar on my computer, tablet, phone, or watch, the emojis provide illustration.

👋😁 Enter text into emojitranslate.com. It replaces some words with pictures. You can copy the “emojified” text and paste it anywhere. This is handy for spicing up instructions, playing with language, making announcements, telling a story, and getting a laugh.
🎬👀👍 Want to learn how to make your videos even more awesome? How about joining me for Classy Videos Summer 2018? My online workshop takes place in Google Classroom July 3 through August 13, 2018. Each week I produce a new instructional video, and each week there’s an optional assignment where you get to practice the skills from the video. Classmates and I give encouragement and feedback on assignments. I lead this workshop last winter and absolutely loved the short videos that my classmates produced. Join the 75+ educators who have already registered for #ClassyVideos Summer 2018. Read more and register at learninginhand.com.
