Keyboard Shortcuts

To drop assignments to your teacher, first open up your student server.

Then you want to open up the dropbox and find your teacher's name. After you find their name, click on drop box, and then click on your class hour. 

Once you are done with that, drag your assignment into the folder. 

TIPS


Image-editing

Always know where the undo button is and how to unedit your picture because you don't want to ruin the picture that you're editing. Never be afraid to try new effects and new edits. 

Formatting
Make sure your report is double spaced, and the margins are set at one inch. Indent in every paragraph, and capitalize the first letter of each main word in your titles. If you have any subheadings, capitalize those and underline them. Don't forget to include your MLA heading either.

iMovie
Make sure you are continuously saving your work. Also, add transitions in between clips to let it flow better.
Garageband
Make sure you know what recording voice you are on. If you are a male, you want to make sure you are on the male recording voice. If you are a female, you want to make sure you are on the female recording voice. Also be sure to follow the steps of saving and dropping it properly. Bryce and I made a mistake, and we had to redo our whole project.
Excel/Spreadsheet

Always use autosum because it will make your work more accurate. DON'T FORGET TO FREQUENTLY SAVE. If you don't save then all your data will be lost. Check over your work a lot too to make sure it is all correct. 

PPT/Presentation

Don't write long paragraphs on your slides. You want your slides to be short so that is looks more presentable. Also, always have the same background for every slide because then it will look more simple and professional.
