TEC 994 - The Chromebook Classroom

Credits: 3
A Chromebook is a laptop computer that utilizes web-based apps and cloud storage. Affordable yet powerful, a Chromebook offers students and teachers access to a wide range of productivity and curricular applications. This course will cover the nuts-and-bolts of the Chromebook as well as the use of productivity apps, online surveys, and learning groups. Hands-on assignments promote a practical, broad understanding of this new teaching and learning tool. The course can be taken using a Chromebook, Windows, or Macintosh computer; it is not necessary to have access to a Chromebook to complete the course. All assignments may be completed without classroom participation. Full materials include a printed copy of the course workbook delivered via US Priority Mail. The supplemental text: Michael Miller's My Google Chromebook (3rd Ed.) ISBN-10: 0789755343 is recommended to achieve maximum benefit from the course, but is not required. The supplemental text is not included with course materials and must be purchased separately. Instructor support is readily available by email and phone.
