Taking Screenshots

Using the Windows Snipping Tool on a PC:

PrintScreen keyboard shortcut:

Using Ctrl+Alt+PrintScreen will copy (to the clipboard) the top layer of what is currently showing on your desktop as an image. You can then paste it into a document and crop or edit the image as needed.

Screenshots on Chromebook:

Ctrl+ "switch window" captures entire screen. Ctrl+Shift+ "switch window" lets you select a range to snip. Of course, any time you're on Chrome or on a Chromebook, you can also use extensions like Awesome Screenshot!

Smartphone Photos:

When all else fails, don't forget that you (and your students) can take pictures with your phone! Email them to yourself or upload directly into Drive or Classroom.
