Our Google/Gaggle integration is complete! Our 3-8 students now have a Google Drive account that is also associated with their Gaggle accounts. What does this mean? If a student logs in on a Google Chromebook using his complete Gaggle email address (epri8727@jcsnc2.org), the student will be logged into the device and three tabs will open in the Chrome browser:
- student Gaggle dashboard (with the student already logged in to his Gaggle account)
- Student Online Connections page
- student Google search page (with the student already logged in to his Google account)
The main reason for this integration is for 3-8 teachers who wish to use the Google Docs sharing feature with students.
A few notes:
- Because of the better filtering service, please use Gaggle for email.
- Students will appear in the email directory, which means teachers can create student email groups.
- If you are a school Gaggle administrator and create a new student account, please allow 24 hours before the account appears in Google.
* The Google/Gaggle integration has no impact on high school students.
