Welcome to the next edition of Tech Tuesday Tips & Tricks. Every Tuesday, your EdTech Team will send you quick tips and tricks to help you with your everyday technology use. We will also link them to our Tech Hub in the Classroom by Design Website. If you need more in-depth training on a particular technology, please watch for when I am on your campus or email us (edtech@fusdaz.org), and we can schedule a time.

If you would like to see a particular tip and trick, email us with your suggestion or with something you’d like to learn, and we will feature your suggestion in an upcoming week!

​
Florence Unified School District now follows a policy where password resets will occur every 90 days.
​
​
Ensuring teachers and district staff regularly update their passwords is a crucial security measure for FUSD. It serves as a safeguard against potential unauthorized access and data breaches. In the digital realm, these practices reinforce the security of our district's valuable assets and your own accounts.

Security/Digital Citizenship Tip of the Week
​
​
A meme depicting three dragons representing different levels of computer health: restart, shut down, and shutting the lid.

​
Is it Time for a Rest?
​
Just like you and I, our computers need to rest and refresh every now and then. The Technology Department recommends to a restart or to completely shutdown your device at least once a week to keep it running at its best. Just shutting the lid does not completely power down the device meaning it is not getting the proper rest it needs to work correctly. Take some time at the end of the week to shut down or restart your device to give your computer what it needs to run at its fastest.
