Wirelessly projecting your iPad!

By Colin Davitt
(by Kelp)

The future is now here and no wires are involved.  You can wirelessly project your teacher iPad and student iPads onto your board.  The steps are listed below.


Take four fingers and swipe up on the screen.


Swipe from the left to the right.


Click the AirPlay button.  (Looks like a small rectangle with a triangle in it.)


Scroll through the list of teachers.  I did this at home so the list of laptops to connect to is very short.  It might ask you for a password.  Use your AD (Active Directory) password.  This is the same password you use to log into your laptop.


Turn mirroring on.


Now click anywhere on the iPad screen and you are projecting.  Any sound that plays on the iPad will now be shared throughout the speakers in your classroom.

Note: If you have a student use a personal iPad you will need to switch your teacher laptop to the student network.  Both devices will need to be on the same wifi network to work.

Setting Your Gmail Away Message

By
You will be away from your classroom for a bit and probably won't be checking email on a regular basis. Wouldn't it be nice to have Gmail respond for you alerting whoever is emailing that you out enjoying your summer? Setting up your vacation responder is pretty simple, a few clicks and a save. Start by clicking the gear icon in the upper right corner of Gmail. Scroll way down the page. Look for the vacation responder section. 1. Click to turn the responder on. 2. Add your first and last days away. We would recommend adding something short and to the point for the subject line. 3. Whatever you add here will be the body of the email you are automatically sending out. It would be a good idea to tell them when you are planning on returning and who to call if they need immediate assistance. We also recommend not checking the two buttons at the bottom. 4. Save changes . That is it. Now your inbox will automatically alert people that you are not in your...
