Update your Twitter pic and profile
Change your Twitter picture to a photo of yourself. Update your profile. Include a screen shot and upload it as an attachment to the Google Classroom assignment.
Add the Google Extension
While in Chrome, go to the Chrome App Store (you can Google the website). Search for and add the Google Drive Extension (not the App but the extension). This will place a small Google Drive icon on the top right of your screen. Screen shot this in the Google Classroom assignment.
Hanging out GOOGLE style
Conduct a Google Hangout with someone that does not work at your same campus. Screen shot this in the Google Classroom assignment.
Peer Pressure
Get a colleague to participate in the challenge. Add their name to the post in Google Classrooms and say you peer pressured them. They also need to post their name and say who pressured them on the post. When they complete 2 assignments, you will get 5 points for EACH person you peer pressured.
