Charging up the Chromebook

Tweet

The school district gave all students and staff brand new Google Chromebooks like 2 months ago. They used funds from the CARES Act to help support students and staff who were virtual. I have to go back to work in person starting tomorrow but students have the option to stay virtual through the end of the year. That means that I need to use the Chromebook for the web cam so the at-home students can see me and see what is up. I use the desktop to display my powerpoint presentations on the board but the Chromebook will be used to video me and the board so everyone at home can see it. I've been using my regular laptop while I've been working from the apartment here. It has a web cam that works fine. It has only taken a year for me to figure out Google Meet and Zoom. I am not going to bring my personal laptop into work though and I don't have the permissions to access the school WiFi so that is what the Chromebook is for. Despite sitting unused in the bottom of my work bag for the past couple of weeks it still is like half-charged so it shouldn't take too long to top this bad boy off.
