Alice Keeler Classroom Split

Alice Keeler Classroom Split - I just discovered this extension in the last couple of days and I love it. This Chrome extension is intended for students to use with Google Classroom. Clicking the Chrome extension icon opens up the Google Classroom assignments page side by side with the students work. Students can easily view their assignment directions while working. Students can right click on the Chrome extension and choose "Options" to change the default destination from the Google Classroom assignments page to another URL. Find more extensions in the Chrome Webstore!

The Great Suspender

The Great Suspender is a lightweight chrome extension to help reduce chrome's memory footprint for users that like to have too many tabs open at the same time. This extension will automagically unload each tab while retaining its favicon and title text. A tab can be restored by clicking anywhere on the page when it is needed. This reduces the number of dom elements on the page and ensures no memory leaks or excessive javascripts are running.

    About Chrome Extensions

    Why should I try them? 1. Chrome extensions are an excellent way to extend the functionality of your Chrome web browser.
    2. Extensions can be accessed and added to Chrome through the Chrome Web Store.
    3. Extensions are FREE and do not require IT support.
    4. Extensions can be eas_ily enabled and disabled through your Chrome settings. Please contact me at [email protected]  or book an appointment with me at mark-tobin.youcanbook.me if you would like additional assistance using Chrome Extensions. You can can also check out Jennifer Scheffer's  BPSCon presentation: Level Up Your Chromebook with the Chrome Web Store, Apps, & Extensions.
