- With the file open, click “File” then “See revision history”. This will open a panel on the right side of the screen.
- In the panel you will see entries for all the changes made to the document, along with the date, time, and person who made the change. Each person will have their own color code.
- When you click on an entry, the document will refresh to show you the changes that person made, highlighted in their color code. You can also hover above the changes in the document to see the person’s name in a pop-up.
- If you want to see the changes broken down in smaller time increments, click “Show more detailed revisions” at the bottom of the panel.
- If you want to revert the document back to an earlier version, click on the entry in the panel and then choose “Restore this revision”.

Logging in to the New AAPS Macbook Airs
There is more than one way to login to the new AAPS Macbook airs. On this page we are going to highlight the easiest way for the students to log into the new Macbook Airs.
After you boot up the computer you will see the following screen.
Click on "Other."
At the login screen the students should type in their 6 digit student ID number as both their user name and password.
When the students are finished using the computer remember to have them log out using the apple menu or shut down the computer.
If a student cannot login, please create a helpdesk ticket so ITD can verify their account.
At its heart, MichED is a community with a point of connection being weekly “chats” on Twitter. The website is a work in progress: http://miched.net/. In addition to archived chat captures, you will also find podcasts and stories from Michigan classrooms.
The Chat
The chats occurs every Wednesday evening, on Twitter, between 8 and 9 p.m. using the hashtag #MichED. During the summer there are “campfire” meetings, where people casually connect with no predetermined questions or agenda
General #MichED format
For those of you new to Twitter chats or #miched, the following guidelines will help your participation:
1. Introduce yourself (name, where you teach, what you teach)
2. Watch for questions to be tweeted out by moderator
3. Questions will be tweeted as “Q1: …………….”
4. Respond with “A1: ………”
5. Don’t forget to include the #miched hashtag!
6. Don’t worry about keeping up. Better to engage with one or two people. Chat will be “storified” (a method for archiving Tweets), tweeted out using #miched and posted to miched.net on Thursday.
7. At the end of the chat, please complete the participation form. We are working toward building a powerful PLN of engaged teachers!
