Posting Grades
I have always said that mid-terms are as much for teachers as they are for students. Making sure your grades are up to date, gradebook is set up and you KNOW HOW to post is pretty important. If/when you click on your class list it will tell you when grades are due. Posting instructions can be found here - www.theolycenter.org/posting.html
Boxlights
Dang they're cool and work great. If you got on installed enjoy and training will happen. If you did not get one installed... yet. Please visit a room with one. Including the Lecture hall. You can install the app Unplug'd via the GSD Workspaces. OR just plug in your laptop with the "Emergency (HDMI) cord" which is on the bottom right of each TV.
A few quick things -
A few quick things -
- It is really just a big tablet that you can also mirror your computer to.
- Do not log into the Chrome app on the TV. Anyone who uses the TV will have access to YOUR files.
- Do not passcode it - Others may need to use your it or your room. IS (AV) will need to reset the TV as needed and you will lose whatever you have on it.
- Audio works great IF you use your laptop and NOT your Desktop.
Printers
I have had a few teachers saying they are getting "other peoples stuff" on their printer. Please be respectful and responsible and not print to other teachers rooms. Installing AND deleting printer instructions are here - https://www.theolycenter.org/printers.html
Lockdown
I am not in charge of any of that but there is a form you need to fill out to include which students you have during the lockdown. Instructions to GET the form are here - https://www.updateshappen.com/lockdown-form-instructions.html the rest is up to the administration!
Pumpkins!
Yes. We (the library) is giving away pumpkins! Just be the closest guesser to the weight of said gourd. Encourage your students to come participate!
LanSchool
Please do NOT forget as mentioned earlier... LanSchool Air for Chromebooks works MUCH better than the older way. It is on your desktop but please let me know when I can come show you how it works.
Phone #'s
I will always stick to separating work and home. There is no need to give out your personal cell #. There are many apps out there that we (GSD) use to communicate. Teams, Skype, E-mail just for the basics that you SHOULD already have on your phone. Did you know that there is a Granite School District App too? Next week I will send include it! I will never answer unidentified calls - neither should you.
