Chromebooks are small but mighty. On their own they deliver loads of learning power. Add some key Google Chromebook accessories and the benefits multiply. School-issued Chromebooks often come bare-bones. Amping them up with accessories can help students get their work done more quickly. More comfortably. And with greater enthusiasm. When homework time is over, great Google Chromebook accessories can deliver better downtime too. Not a student but still love your Chromebook? These Google Chromebook accessories are also for you. Google Chromebook Accessory No. 1 USB-C adapter Yes, a humble dongle tops the list of hot Google Chromebook accessories. Why? Because many Chromebook ports aren’t compatible with many popular Chromebook accessories. Chromebooks are smaller, lighter and cheaper than traditional laptops. Which usually means they have fewer and smaller ports. Today’s newest Chromebooks are outfitted with small, USB-C ports. They’re the 1/3-inch or so ... [Learn More]

By Cynthia Kater, MAXCases Marketing Manager Ever wondered about how laptop cases are categorized? In the abstract, it doesn’t make for great dinner conversation. The distinctions take on a new light, however, when faced with determining the best choice for your organization or classroom. Back in the day, briefcase-like bags were the most widely-available option. Today, device-specific custom-fit cases and universal work-in cases are the most popular choices. We invite you to read on and learn about which of these distinctly-different protective solutions may be the best fit for your organization. (We even include a handy VEN diagram.) Bags and Sleeves The defining characteristic of traditional bags and sleeves is that the users must take the device out of the bag to use it. Designed to meet a wide range of needs, from ultra-slim sleeves to fully-loaded Esports backpacks, they’re great for careful users, and not recommended for younger students. By contrast, b...

One-to-one device initiatives are rife with challenges. From selecting, sourcing and securing devices to providing ongoing PD and support for instructors. Educating families and students on the appropriate use and care of devices is no small part of the task. To limit liability, districts often turn to legal counsel to assist in developing comprehensive expectations. This is where things can get sticky. While important, relying solely on dense legal documents to guide families and students can end up impeding compliance, as key concepts get lost in the legalese. Want to maximize the impact of your Chromebook or other device care communications? Think beyond the legal aspects of your message. 1. Determine key message points. What are the messages you really want to hit home? Chances are they fall under some common umbrellas: Using your device. Repair and replacement responsibilities. Digital Citizenship. And, of course, caring for your device. To reach more families ... [Learn More]

By teacher guest blogger Kathryn Rose As school districts face down another year of education under the cloud of a pandemic, teachers are encountering a new set of students whose parents are increasingly more involved with their children’s day-to-day academics. In a lot of ways, involved parents are an asset to the classroom, even when precipitated by chaotic or stressful events. Involved parents support teachers and their vision for a year filled with extended learning experiences. Involved parents help their own students succeed throughout the ups and downs of a normal school year. But how are parents going to handle the inevitable increase in technology that will appear this year if kids are once again asked to move into remote or blended learning? The relationship between tech devices and daily instruction solidified over the past two years. Students and schools were desperate to get their hands on anything that would keep classrooms connected and learning.... [Learn More]

By teacher guest blogger Kathryn Rose Once again, the holiday season is upon us and many teachers feel like they are hurtling down a crazy few weeks filled with curriculum catch-up, classroom parties, and students watching the clock waiting for winter break. Although let’s be honest, aren’t we all just a little bit excited for a break? Everything about teaching seems to accelerate in December. Projects need to be completed, classrooms need to be cleaned, and grades need to be turned in. But as the semester assessments start to roll in, many teachers also start to wonder about the new year. What strategies have been working and should continue? What needs to change so that students can find more academic and social-emotional success? While graphic organizers and extra study time might benefit a few students, there is one very easy classroom management strategy that will benefit everyone. It also happens to fall in line with December’s seasonal aspirations! I... [Learn More]

By teacher guest blogger Kathryn Rose There was always going to be fallout from living through a global pandemic. While it’s hard to quantify everything that was lost, educators are starting to see the results of bouncing between virtual and in-person learning environments. It’s rough -- there’s no getting around it. Masks may still be jammed into backpacks, hand sanitizer might flow freely, and you may be feeling a palpable urgency to cram as much into the school day as possible. How else are we going to close the gaping educational holes that have proliferated the past two years? But before you dive straight into a textbook, allow yourself a deep breath and a reminder that everyone’s mental health is just as important as their physical health. (Or, dare I say, standardized tests.) We have all been through so much and we know that there is now a youth mental health crisis sweeping across the country. Since 2020, the CDC reported a staggering inc... [Learn More]
