Classroom Tech Information:
1. Web 2.0 and Cloud Computing - Students may be expected to use online collaborative tools for their learning. These tools are often referred to as Web 2.0 Tools and are part of the move towards “cloud computing”.
2. WRDSB GAFE Accounts
Every student in the Waterloo Region District School Board has been assigned a Google Apps for Education account. You login to this account via http://google.wrdsb.ca and then use your regular school computer login information.
3. Google Classroom
You may be required to use this tool to complete or submit assignments. Detailed instructions will follow as the semester goes on.
4. Waterworks – Student email account
Every student in the Waterloo Region District School Board has been assigned an email account. This is the account you must use to sign up for any account I require you to have. The use of this email is to help ensure safety, accountability, and easy password retrieval.
- How to access your student email account
- Go to hrh.wrdsb.ca and click on My Way
- Click on My Email and use your usual school log-in and password
5. Remind
I plan on sending out regular reminders to students and parents via Remind.com, either directly to your cell phone or through email:
- To receive messages via text, text @clegg1d to (226) 783-1880. You can opt-out of messages at anytime by replying, 'unsubscribe @clegg1d'. Note: you will be charged for these texts if you have a plan that does not include unlimited texting!
- To receive messages via email, send an email to [email protected]. To unsubscribe, reply with 'unsubscribe' in the subject line. Note: this is the better option if you have a limited text plan.
