Google Drive: Share Google Files as Templates or View Only

By Anonymous -

I've learned a lot lately about what can and can't be done with a Google doc to manage what happens when I share it with other people. In most instances, I use the built in sharing settings when I want to collaborate or convert my docs to PDF and share that so that my original can't be changed by anyone. Recently, I found that this was not the only way to do this and really it probably wasn't the most convenient way to share my documents. I've tried publishing my Google docs, but have found mixed success with the formatting. It seems that publishing works best with Google Slides, but other file types are not as friendly. To get around these hurdles, adjusting the URL can be a really useful way to  make your work or your students' work available. Required Settings Be sure to set either the global sharing settings or the individual sharing settings to the desired access level before proceeding. To do this on any document type:  Click on the blue Shar...

Google Chrome - Using the Profile Menu

So, It's been a long time since my last post. I had a busy summer and the start of this school year has been the busiest that I can remember, which makes things go quickly. But in the spirit of the split lives that teachers live, here is a quick guide on using Chrome profiles to manage the important separation that teachers work to maintain between home and school. Why use Chrome Profiles? Chrome allows a user to create separate browser profiles for each google account. This allows users to keep work, school, and/or personal accounts all separate, but still use them at the same time. They will operate independently with their own settings, bookmarks, extensions and more.  In other words, there is no need to switch between accounts anymore – all of them can be open at the same time. *In addition, Add-Ons in Google Drive work better when profiles are kept separate (like Goobric). Set Up Profiles: Sign in, or see who is signed into Chrome: When Google Chrome is first o...

iWork and Google Drive

By Anonymous -
In my last post, I   discussed Google Drive and the Coeur d'Alene Schools District's Google Apps for Education domain. Now, we have more ways to integrate this resource with apps that don't support Google Drive with in-app connections. One such application is the iWork suite offered by Apple (Pages, Numbers, and Keynote). At first glance, one might think that you are unable to use the two together, but using the iWork app and the Google Drive app together, a connection can be made very easily. The thing that we all have to get used to, which took me a little bit to wrap my brain around, was that Google Drive is now cloud storage, not just for Google formatted, Google friendly documents. I can put any kind of document that I want in my Google Drive for safe keeping. This does not mean that Google can open it, but it does mean that I can save it there and access it from accessible programs or apps anywhere that I need to.  In order to do this, I follow the steps belo...
