Google Translate: the typical web browser experience. By adding the Google Translate Extension in Chrome, you can do even more.
|
You have probably heard of Google Translate, a continually improving AI translation technology that can translate anything from individual words and short phrases all the way to entire web pages from one language to another. You may be familiar with the Google online site you can find by searching for "Google Translate," which lets you copy and paste text into one field, which then gets translated in the next. You may also have used the dedicated phone app for iOS or Android. Both are useful tools, but since your students have Chromebooks, it is helpful to also know about the Chrome Extension of Google Translate, which has several potentially helpful use cases. While Google Translate still makes plenty of mistakes, it is gradually improving, more languages are being added, and it can be much better than having nothing.
