Tech Tips
Google Classroom - Join on Laptop, Android, and iPhone

- You can turn off all comments OR turn them off for this document
- Instructions to turn them off: https://www.solveyourtech.com/how-to-turn-off-google-drive-email-notifications/
Googe Drive - Can’t access file
- Do your friend not have access? Then it’s my fault- email me.
- Do your friends have access? So do you then.
- Do not “request access”
- You’re probably not logged in to the right account
- Log in to your university account
Google Drive Spellcheck not working
- Turn off Grammarly (or other spellchecker plugins)
- Try a different browser (Brave, Firefox, or Safari recommended)
- Under “File”, select “Language” and select English
Google Classroom - “Check your Originality report”

- Don’t forget to turn on the citation switch.
- [引用した文章が <数値> 件あります] の横にあるスイッチをオン にします数値>
- Don’t just check flagged “フラグ済みの文”. You must ALSO click 詳細, then if you see it [引用した文章が <数値> 件あります] の横にあるスイッチをオン にします数値>
- The instructions might say “適切に引用した文が含まれているテキスト”
- but using “適切” is tricky. It’s OK to use it
- ONLY IN QUOTES “ “
- ONLY ONCE per paragraph
- ONLY IF the actual words are important.
- For example
- OK: King said that he had a dream (King, 1963).
- OK, occasionally: “I have a dream,” (King, 1963)
- NOT OK, ever, anywhere: I have a dream (King, 1963)
- but using “適切” is tricky. It’s OK to use it
