Other hacks:
Ctrl F-trying to find a specific word or phrase on any document or webpage
Add a dash “-” after the “t” in the YouTube URL address to remove ads and comments
Ctrl + X = Cut (hint for remembering - “X” looks a little like open scissors✄)
Ctrl + C = Copy (no hint - “C” is for Copy)
Ctrl + D = Duplicate (essentially Copy & Paste together at once, no hint, “D”)
Ctrl + V = Paste (hint for remembering - “V” for Velcro® - “stick” it down, or the V looks like it’s pointing down to paste it down on the page)
Split screen on students' chromebooks, Alt ] and then just pull your tabs apart so you can look at a website and something else at the same time
First, make sure you’ve shared your document as either “anyone with the link” or “public.” Next, click the URL in the search bar and replace the word edit at the end of the URL with the word copy. Then click enter (or return on a Mac) and you’re all set! Share this new URL and it will force users to make a copy of the document prior to opening it. Tip courtesy of @tonyvincent.
