This weeks shortcut of the week is to help you project your Chromebook. Due to resolutions, your Chromebook will likely default to the “Extended Screen” mode. If they happens, you will see your desktop background on the screen upon plugging in your Chromebook (your Chromebook needs an HDMI connection, if you need a cable, I can get you one!).
In order to change this, you will use the “Ctrl + Full Screen” button. This will quickly switch between the two modes, allowing you to switch back and forth. A quick word to the wise, the extended screen is usually to the right!
Am I to understand that we don't have a way to do this wirelessly?
ReplyDeleteHey Sharon,
DeleteRight now, there is not an easy way wirelessly. The Apple TVs and the Chromebooks are not the best communicators. We are brainstorming ways to make this something that is an option.
One of the ways that we are looking at is Google Cast for Education, but it is a newer product and we have not yet had the time to test it fully. When we do, I will be sure to keep you updated!
Thanks!
