Texting in the Classroom
Incognito on Google Chrome
Incognito mode opens a new window where you can browse the Internet in private without Chrome saving the sites you visit. You can switch between an Incognito window and any regular Chrome browsing windows you have open. You'll only be in Incognito mode when you're using the Incognito window. -via Google Support
To use Incognito mode:
- Open a Google Chrome window
- Hold Ctrl + Shift + N
- A new screen will open stating that you are using Incognito Mode
Incognito Mode does not keep what you are viewing private from the district. This is only a way to override the typical blocks that stop you from logging in to your school, personal, or other accounts all at the same time.
