Basic Chromebook Handling Procedures:
1. Do not get your Chromebook until I release your row to do so. 2. Always take the Chromebook that matches the number of your assigned desk. 3. Unplug the Chromebook from the charger BEFORE taking it from the shelf. 4. Hold the Chromebook with two hands until you reach your desk. 5. Open the Chromebook slowly. Once opened, it should be at a 90 degree angle. 6. Always sign out at the end of the period. 7. When returning your Chromebook to the cart, please verify you are placing it on the correct shelf with the corresponding number. 8. Plug the Chromebook in so it can continue to charge. |
