FREE Summer PD Opportunity!

As the school year winds down, let us take this opportunity to THANK YOU for reading our Tuesday Tech Tips emails.  We hope that they have been helpful to you.  You can review all of our tips by going to our blog, and if you have an idea for a future tip, please don't hesitate to submit it.

Our tip for today is a FREE summer professional development put on by NWOCA in conjunction with the Bryan City Schools.  Come join us for our #NWOCARoadShow17 as we stop in Bryan on August 9th.

We'll have a great mini-conference for you, with over 30 sessions to pick-your-own PD. We've got lots of opportunities to go more in-depth with the G Suite, but we also have non-Google topics such as:

  • VR in the Classroom
  • Coding for Elementary Students
  • Robotics
  • PowerTeacher Pro
  • CleverTouch Boards
  • Cool Tools for Teachers
  • and much more!
Be sure to check out the #NWOCARoadShow17 website for all the details and a link to register, and keep checking all summer as we add more sessions and topics.  Again, this event is 100% free, even if you're not a full member of NWOCA.  Please join us on August 9th!

HAPPY SUMMER!

Relax: You're in Complete Control!

Well, you may not rule the world but you are in absolute control of the content in your Google account. You can copy the content in your account to use elsewhere or use the archive tool as a simple backup. This works great if you want to backup your YouTube videos or a specific folder in g Drive.  To accomplish this, follow the below instructions: Visit https://myaccount.google.com/ From the Personal Info & Privacy area, click on CONTROL YOUR CONTENT Click on CREATE ARCHIVE The next screen allows you to select what data you want to include. By default, all options are selected. If you want to archive one specific folder in gDrive and/or YouTube files, it is easiest to click on the SELECT NONE button. After clicking on the SELECT NONE button, you will need to select which ones to include in archive by clicking on the white square next to the X. The green square with a white checkmark indicates that this data will be included in archive. If you s

What the SHEETS?!?

When creating a new Google Sheet, by default, it will have one sheet tab at the bottom of the page. The program is designed so that you can have a maximum of 200 sheets. To add additional sheets, you can click on the plus sign in the sheets toolbar. One sheet will be added. To rename the sheet, click on the dropdown arrow next to the Sheet, and select RENAME. You may want to explore other sheet tab options available from the menu. There may be times when you want your Google Sheet to open to a specific tab. To accomplish this, copy the URL of the specific sheet tab. For example, if you want the Google Sheet to immediately open to the second sheet tab named Chart, copy the Chart sheet tab URL. You will notice that the information to the right of the / changes: Google Sheet URL: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hivDhrInFjmhl-AFB_frFOvpsyuY541hxn6ShQuo7I8/ edit?usp=sharing Chart Sheet Tab: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1hivDhrInFjmhl-A

Review your Google app permissions!

I just LOVE the Sign in with Google buttons that you find all over the web. They are great because they use a protocol called OAUTH to securely log you in using your Google account. This means you don’t have to remember yet another username and password. We get so used to clicking these buttons to log in to sites and that means we’re racking up a bunch of sites that have access to our Google accounts. Today, I’m going to show you how to manage the connected apps and sites that you’ve authorized with your Google account. We can use this tip to review these apps and sites to see if we really use them and if we want them to have access to our Google account. Just follow these steps: Click your photo at the top right of any Google window, and select My Account. On the left side of the My Account window, click Connected apps & sites Then under the Apps connected to your account section, choose Manage apps. This will give you a list of a
