Less than 1 week until the first HOA!

By -
A few weeks ago I shared through Google+ that I was hosting my first Google Hangout on Air. Well, it's officially less than one week away! We'll be talking about all kinds of technology integration stuff including upcoming conferences, conference proposal deadlines, as well as cool stuff that is going on. If you are interested in watching, just come join the event! Or, even better, if you are doing something cool that you'd like to share with us, please let me know! My goal is to bring in a teacher/integrator from K-5, 6-8, and 9-12 to make it a well rounded program. Check out the event page for the agenda. I'm super excited/nervous, but am looking forward to getting it going.

I wanted to send out a message to those folks who are looking to work on technology for your 20 hours of PD time. First off, I have modified my "available" hours on my appointment calendar so that you can now book me until 3:15 on (most) Mondays and Wednesdays.  I could even meet longer than that as long as you make arrangements with me in advance. I am happy to meet 1:1 or with groups of teachers to provide any support or training that you need.

Hide Dropped Students in Infinite Campus

I had a teacher ask me if there was a way to hide or remove students who are no longer in your class. The answer is maybe. It depends on if they are officially dropped from your class and appearing as red in your roster and gradebook. If not, then no, you cannot remove them until they have been unenrolled from the class.

If the student is showing up as red in your gradebook though, you can hide them so you don't have to worry about them. Here is a screenshot to help you do it:

I wanted to take a moment to give everyone a heads up that some changes have been made to Gmail and the district is going to move everyone to the updated "look" by sometime in June. Although it will still have the same functionality, there are certainly some features that will be new to you.

First off, Google already has a ton of resources out there about it:

Stay composed: here’s a quick rundown of the new GmailLearn what's new in Gmail I'll cover some of the "biggies" here, but either of those posts from Google will give you a more in depth look at what all the nuances are.
