Google Apps for Education
Have you checked out the Google Apps that are available to us through Google Apps for Education (GAFE)? By clicking the Apps Launcher (Waffle) in your Google account you will see tons of apps like Docs, Slides, Sheets, Sites, and the list goes on. You can also add extensions by going to the Chrome Web Store. THESE POSSIBILITIES ARE ENDLESS, and if you have some time, check into some of the extensions. There are some out there that will even grade tests for you!!! Check out some of the things you can do with GAFE here: https://www.smore.com/2bgy8-gafe
I have a Chromebook...What Now?
Want to know some keyboard shortcuts? Ctrl + Alt + ?
To turn Caps Lock on (instead of having the search button above the shift key): Alt + search (magnifying glass)
How to right click: Click or tap with two fingers on the mouse pad
How to scroll on the mouse pad: Swipe up and down with two fingers
There are so many things you can do with your Chromebook that are similar to a computer. I found many ideas and tricks here.
