Google Meet
Dear Families,On Wednesday, April 8, I will be hosting a "practice" Google Meet session from 9:30-10:30am. Students will always be invited into their Google Meet sessions through a link provided to them through their GMAIL account (student@educbe.ca). Please read below for some digital citizenship reminders.
As we move into our Google Classroom environment, please be aware of a few things in relation to Digital Citizenship.
We want to encourage a positive learning environment where posts and comments are connected to the assignments and curriculum. Google Classroom and Google Meet is not the place to post items you would normally post on other digital platforms. It is a school classroom and all posts need to be school appropriate. During our Meet session we want to encourage discussion that is engaging and relevant to the learning.
Students who are not adhering to the school digital citizenship plan, that was signed at the beginning of the year, will be notified by their teacher. Please see the etiquette images below for tips.
We are committed to providing students and staff with a welcoming, caring, respectful and safe learning environment that respects diversity and fosters a sense of belonging.
Here is an additional link on accessing G Suite for Education and Gmail support through the CBE Website: http://www.cbe.ab.ca/support/Pages/Google-Apps-Gmail.aspx where students are also provided tips on Google Meet as well as etiquette when in the virtual environment. Please review and talk about the guidelines for digital citizenship as students are increasing their time online.
Thank you for your patience and support during this time of transition. If you have any questions please reach out and contact me (clstoesz@cbe.ab.ca) and I will do my best to support in any way that I can.
Sincerely,
Ms. Stoesz
