Using Google Email
Gmail Issues
Many students who use a hyphenated last name already had a firstnamelastname style email account. For these students, I have been manually resetting their passwords to match their Novell/Moodle password. It is essential for us all to set the same password as we move toward a universal profile of passwords.
Please just email me a list of students and their passwords if they need to be reset.
Teachers:
- Groupwise syncs with Google Email-- You do not have to check 2 emails.
- Email is the exact format as Groupwise.
- First time using Google Email, the password is @GoDLM!
- You can't reset your own password. Please let me know if you forget.
- Recommendation: use the same password as Groupwise.
Students:
- Students will use the format as the image above.
- Students will use password @GoDLM!
- All student accounts have been reset.
- Mandatory that student passwords are the same as their Novell login.
- All students K-12 have a GAFE (Google Apps For Education) account.
Signing in to Google Chrome
DPI Students
Students who are considered DPI students should be signed into their Chrome account. If you need any help with this please let me know. They use their same Gmail address and password as their email.
You will recognize they are logged in to Chrome because their name will be in the Chrome bar. If they have a "ghost man" style person, they are not signed in.
Signing into Chrome helps us manage their history.
