Student Passwords in Freckle

 

Setting individual student passwords in Freckle will make it much more difficult for students to log in as one of their classmates. 

To do this, follow the instructions below:

Go to your class roster and 1. click the settings gear, then 2. click Set password protection.

3. Click the box

4. Click Save

When you do this all students will be assigned a login. I suggest changing each student login to the same password they use for their email.

5. Click on the individual student

6. Update password. 

You can find each student's email password in PowerSchool.

Google Calendar Basics

 Other important Google Calendar tutorials:

• Create events
• Reserving spaces/rooms on campus

iPad App Access To Photos

Very important information for iPad users. Please share this with your students.

 

ES Technology Update August 2022

 Esteemed Colleagues,

It was great to see you in my session this morning. I am looking forward to a great year collaborating with you in your classroom and the makerspace. A big thank you to the tech team members who had a very busy summer preparing for the opening of school.

Here are a few reminders from the tech department this year:

• Help Desk is now the tool for requesting tech support (not the technology email).

• Student devices will remain on campus.

• Parents will be completing an acceptable use agreement in PowerSchool acknowledging that they are responsible for damage and loss of school devices (and we will be charging for damage).
  

• The Acceptable Use Policy is now called the Responsible Use Agreement (but we will continue to use both titles).

• We now have class sets of Ozobots, Spheros, & Botleys. Let's code!

• Click on the new icons on your desktop if you haven't tried them already.

• Introduce yourself to Yus when you see him.

• More about the makerspace soon.

Below are some important links that I think you will find useful:

• Link to the tech update presentation
• Please book Steve for the RUA lesson in the first cycle. Steve's calendar

• How to send a Google Calendar invite

• How to book a classroom space

• Seesaw 

• DO NOT CHANGE ANY INFORMATION (Student names, class names, adding or deleting students, etc.) 

• Only approve parents who are using their ISKL email. Returning parents will already be attached to their child if they used Seesaw at ISKL last year. 

• Getting started with Seesaw guides

• Go deeper with the Seesaw Learning Hub

• How to use Seesaw Messages
• Become a Seesaw Ambassador
• How to use your document camera
