Do you want students to scan handwritten documents to turn in? Many students do not have document scanners, and oftentimes the pictures they take with their phones are very large file sizes.

The Microsoft Lens App is available on both Google Play and the App Store. The app allows students to quickly create and upload high-visibility PDF documents to Google Drive. Students can make single-paged or multi-paged PDFs that are high-quality but small file size. If students need to Email the PDF to you or to group members, they can easily do that in the app.
