Me on the Web : Google Dashboard - Accounts Help - 3 views

  •  
    What it is: Me On the Web is a new tool from Google.  Announced just today, Me On the Web is part of the Google Dashboard that allows you to set up custom Google Alerts for your name in news articles.  This was always possible with Google Alerts but now those alerts are coupled with tips and resources for helping students manage their online identities.  Now everything can be tracked from one central location instead of scattered around in different places.  Me On the Web is easy to set up, just visit your Google Dashboard to get started. How to integrate Me on the Web into the classroom: There was a day when you could get away with not knowing and following your digital identity, that day is no more.  We all carry digital footprints, and now more than ever it is vital for us (and our students) to know how to manage those digital footprints.  Teaching students about their digital identity is the first step, Google's Me on the Web takes that a step further by helping students manage their online identities through Google Alerts and helpful tips.  Students must have an account with Google to fully utilize the Me on the Web features.  After students have their account set up, they can create a set of Google Alerts related to them.  This could be their name, email address, a sports team that they play on, the name of the school they attend, etc.  Students will quickly see just how big a memory the Internet has and get a first hand look at their digital footprint and learn some strategies to take care of it.

Creating an ePub Book Using Pages - How to Make the eBook Cover Look Good | iPad Academy - 0 views

  •  Apple’s guidelines for ePubs tell us to only use inline images. That is, images that act like text elements in terms of formatting. However, I discovered you can violate this rule in one place, the first page, the page that becomes the cover image. You can use a floating image and stretch it to fill the margins so you don’t get a white border. Be sure to check the box to use the first page as the book cover image. Ignore warnings Pages generates once the file is converted to ePub. (A cover size of 600px x 800px works well for iBooks and other book distributors, though other sizes are possible).
