Answering some questions that have been hanging around De Sales Hall recently.
Answering some questions that have been running rampant here in De Sales hall!
1) You’ll see two versions of the student printers
– “regular” and “pi”. They both go to the same printer. The idea is that only 1 will go insane at a time.
2) If your document does not print,
check Print Center before printing it a 2nd/3rd/4th/time. Double-click the home button, and find print center. If job #1 is stuck, jobs 2,3,4, etc will NEVER print. You must delete it.
NOTE: On the “no home button” 9th grade iPads, 4-finger swipe to one side or the other to switch between running apps.
3. If you have umpteen apps running
[either double-click the home button, and do the “close 5 fingers swipe” on the screen] – swipe out of them!
4. If you don’t remember the last time you shut your iPad down
– swipe out of all your running apps and shut it down. Wait 10 seconds. Fire it back up.
5. To print from Notability:
Three dot menu, top right
Quick Share

Pay attention to what printer you are selecting, and double sided option
To print from Google Docs:

Curious how to use Notability in the classroom?
The ways that students and teachers use Notability are vast. It’s the perfect study aid for all types of learners: auditory (record and playback audio synced to writing for exam), visual (handwrite with Apple Pencil or share with Presentation Mode), Read/Write (type and annotate).
Students: Notability makes it easy to organize class notes, write out thoughts, record classes, and review for exams. It combines multiple inputs like sketching, handwriting, audio recording, photos, and more into one simple-to-use interface. Students can annotate slides, present projects in class, learn a language, and even complete and turn in class assignments in the cloud. Not to mention it can lighten backpacks; students can import presentation slides or even textbooks to review and mark-up!
Teachers: Use Notability as a single place to collect work, grade, provide student feedback and even present lessons (replacing traditional whiteboards). Teachers also use Notability to screencast and create videos and notes that they share with their students before and after class so that students can learn the concepts on their own time.
