Portable Device Use Policy |
I encourage the RESPONSIBLE use of smart phones and other tech devices during class, as many students now have such devices which can enhance their educational experience.
The following are my simple cell phone policies:
ANY LOST OR STOLEN TECH DEVICES ARE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE STUDENT, so watch over your belongings. |
Chromebook Policy
- Take and use the device assigned to you ONLY.
- Inspect the casing, screen, and keyboard and report issues to the teacher immediately. Anything reported after the beginning of the class will be your responsibility.
- Utilize peers’ expertise to help troubleshoot before asking teacher.
- Absolutely no food or drink on your desk.
- Keep all four corners of the device on your desk.
- When walking with the device, you must have TWO hands on the devices at all times.
- Return your device to the appropriate slot, with the charging port up and facing the front.
- Plug in your device with the correct charger. Be aware that the charger is fragile, so plug with care.
GAFE (Google Apps For Education) Policy
All students will be expected to access their GGUSD GAFE (Google Apps For Education) account on a DAILY basis. If you don't yet know your account access information, you'll get it at the start of the year.
Not only will you use your GAFE account to access your Google Classroom and "G-Drive" on a regular basis, your GAFE gmail address is what this class will use for most classroom announcements and communications. It will also be the email that you will use to email me with. I will give a lesson on how to access this account and how to sync your GAFE accounts to your smart phones and personal gmail accounts for easier access. How to Access: Your Username: grad year + first initial + last name (+possible #) + @ ggusd.net [ex: [email protected]) Your Password: your 8 digit birthday All students will be required to CHANGE their passwords to their GAFE accounts. However, do NOT do this until directed. It will be an assignment for this class and your passwords will be shared with me (in case you forget!). |
