Chromebook Touchpad Tips

Did you know?

The graphic above is a screenshot from a session I attended on Productivity and Automation at a virtual conference on Friday that blew my mind. I believe you can watch the sessions "on demand" at Google Education on Air: Australia and New Zealand. You may need to register for the free event in order to watch the sessions. 

Did you know there are two types of scrolling? "Traditional" and "Australian" scrolling. You can change your Chromebook to scroll how you prefer. Directions to change how your touchpad works, along with some additional tips and fixes, can be found at on the Google Support page Use your Chromebook touchpad.

Have you attended a virtual conference or webinar? There are so many available for so many different topics! Let us know which you recommend.
