You just ROCKED MY WORLD!!! I cannot even. I knew a lot of the major hacks, but the cleanliness of the icons... Phhhhht, seriously amazing. THANK YOU!
So great to hear it Krissina!
Just when I think I'm ready to ascend to the Iron Throne of education technology, New EdTech Classroom puts out a new video and bumps me back to peasant status!
Ha! There's room for all of us tech heads here on the Iron Throne of EdTech! 👑👑👑
Lots of great tips, I like to refer to my tabs and bookmark bar as real estate, so increasing my tab and bookmark real estate is one of my favorite tips that I pass along to all my teachers. Don’t forget you can add folders to your bookmark bar. I also like to bookmark specific folders on my Google drive so I don’t have to search each time.
Yeah I've totally bookmarked specific Drive folders in the bookmark bar as well. Happy Thursday Eric!
How can I have a group for emails,for example if I want to send to student an email and his parents,how can I send an email without always looking for parents emails? Thank you for your help
I loved the video, even though I already new some of these hacks, you always show more. Thank you!
Right on! Glad to hear it Sandy :)
You guys are my gods!!!!
Ha! Awesome! Thanks, Roger!!

Awesome video; full of practical, helpful tips. Thank you. NETC is clearly the 'go to' place for teacher ed tech wisdom.
Thanks so much Illeen! And thanks for the love over on LinkedIn as well :)
My favorite was create app out of website,mind blowing
Yeah I just learned about it a couple months ago! I only do it for a couple of apps but love it.
Thank you this is so useful
Right on! Glad it was helpful :)
Thank you!
Sure thing Autumn! Happy Chroming :)
This is amazing 👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks Rita! Happy Chroming 😃
Great tips! Quick question though regarding notifications. If I remove the ability for sites to send notifications, does that also include apps/extensions that require permission to access the microphone/camera as well ? So, if a user needs to install Screencastify, for example, they would have to go into Chrome settings to enable the mic and camera b/c the notification pop-up would be turned off. Is that correct?
Hey Stephanie, since those aren't notifications (they're permissions) they'll still go through even if you've set it for no notifications from any sites :)
Thanks for all the tips. Just a quick question. How can I group tabs which are already there in Windows? "Shift" doesn't seem to work when I hold it.
Hm, try holding Control or Alt while clicking and see if that works. You can also add them one at a time to a group.
Muy bueno ✅
Gracias :) Pasa un buen dia!
thanks - what's the difference between making an app and pinning and bookmarks? they all seem to serve the same purpose
Yeah, they all create ease of access. I like pinning apps that I always use so they're readily available...1 less click.
I don't make Chrome apps too often. The first time I found it useful was when I joined an online group similar to Facebook but it wasn't on Facebook. I found that I kept forgetting to go check on the group but creating a separate app and putting it next to commonly used apps in my dock helped remind me to go check in with the group. I think having your gradebook as a separate app could be helpful too.
And bookmarks are for websites I'd like readily available but don't need them everyday so I don't end up pinning them.
Hope that helps!
hi, first tq for this. i have q question about the group tab. once I"ve grouped my tabs, how can I pin it? i tried pinning a single tab and it worked but failed with a group tab. tq
Unfortunately you can't pin grouped tabs :( You'll have to manually drag them to the far left if you want them over there.
The groups is way cool, but, how do I get the groups to be there when I reopen Chrome? When I clicked "use current pages" in settings and reopened Chrome, all the groups disappeared. I use Windows btw. Have learned so many great things from you guys!. Thanks.
The only way to keep them even after closing out of Chrome is to use the 'continue where you left off' feature.
Holy.***. I want to marry the tab groups.I
They’re awesome 😃 I don’t know how good of a life partner they’d make. Let me know!
How do you add the "fake student" account to your Google Drive account if you want to show student view... looks like you need an email for that?
🤩
🔥🔥🔥
I think there is so much good information. But. Too quick and missing processes.
Can you please slow down?
Hey Colleen. Thanks for the feedback. Will for sure keep it in mind in upcoming videos.
