LEISD has used Google's "G Suite for Education" applications like Gmail, Google Drive, Google Docs, and more for many years. Students are taught from early elementary grades how to login to their LEISD Google account and use the tools in the platform. G Suite tools are perfect for when students need to collaborate with each other on written work in a Google Doc or put together a group presentation in Google Slides.
One of the biggest benefits of using the G Suite tools is that they are always available from any internet-connected device, with no software installation required. The G Suite tools run best in the Chrome internet browser, or through apps on a smart phone or tablet. Students can login to their LEISD Google account from anywhere at any time and continue working where they left off at school.
Students can access their LEISD G Suite tools (Gmail, Google Drive, Google Docs, etc.) from their ClassLink account.
If a student is logged in to a LEISD Chromebook, they will automatically be logged in to their LEISD Google account. They will only need to go to ClassLink to find the links to their Gmail, Google Drive, etc.
