Q3 Screenshot: Entire Screen

Screenshot

Work with a partner or on your own (check with your teacher) to learn how to take a screenshot of the entire device screen and then of just a part of the screen. 

Search-Try-Teach

At times, it is important to capture an image of your display. There are so many different devices; the best way to learn to capture the display effectively is to search for "How to..." and then try it out, practice it, and teach it to someone else.

Benefits of Capturing Your Display

• Create a "how-to" tutorial for others or add to your portfolio.
• Document an error message, inappropriate content, or communication such as bullying to share with an authority or parent as evidence.
• To document an error message or inappropriate message to show to an authority.

Capturing your screen

In a new tab on your browser, type the following in the search bar: "How do I take a screenshot with a _________?"  Fill in the blank with the exact name of your device (e.g., Chromebook, Windows PC, Macintosh, iPad). 

Write down the steps if needed and try it out. (An example is shown below using a MacBook Pro and Chrome browser.)
