Tech Tip Tuesday

Read the original post on how I use Tech Tip Tuesday.

I recently attended Chromebooks in the Classroom training courtesy of MOREnet.  Next year, our middle school is going 1:1, and an elementary building and our high school should be 2:1.   I learned a lot of helpful tips and tricks, and would share the following ones first with students.

Chromebook Tech Tips:

1.  Use the search key (magnifying glass where caps lock usually is).  It opens a smaller window to do a Google search and is a shortcut to apps.

2.  Keyboard Shortcuts: Use Control, Alt, and ? to highlight what the shortcuts are.  When the smaller window is open, hold in on Control, Alt, Shift, or Search (magnifying glass) individually to see what the shortcuts are ~ Game Changer!

3.  Make a Split Screen: Use Alt { to split your screen to the left.  Use a second time to make it smaller, and a third time to go back to original size.  Alt }  does the same thing for a right split.

4.  Unique Keys on Your Chromebook Keyboard list via Chromebook Help
