2. Create a complimentary assignment that is set to an Online assignment where students can submit their Google doc directly from Google Drive. 
3. Use Google Assignments LTI 1.3 for new assignments

Return to School Tips

PHASE 1: CDL setup at school

1. Take a picture of your home technology setup (including the cable connections)
2. Use this as a guide for your initial CDL setup in the classroom to ease transition
3. Call Help Desk for remote support on connections (503-431-4051)

PHASE 2: Returning to “New” Normal

1. With Hybrid instruction in mind, consider the set up you need to make the most of in-person instruction (projector use, document camera, etc.)
2. Place a Tech Request for any assistance you may need for this setup. ES Technicians will work through submitted tech requests and associated classrooms over spring break to set up equipment left out.
