To make the most of your program’s resources on a Chromebook® all you need is a vhlcentral account and internet access.

We've worked to make sure the following resources work on a Chromebook®:

  • Partner and Virtual Chat Activities
  • Streaming video
  • Audio
  • Presentational readings (literary and cultural selections and spoken grammar presentations)
  • vText*
  • Grammar Tutorials
  • Flashcards
  • Vocabulary Tutorials
  • Speech Recognition

NOTE:  When it comes to RAM, most Chromebooks come with either 2GB or 4GB.  We highly recommend at least 4GB of RAM.  The difference will be worth it when accessing and completing the activities mentioned above.

 

Other Recommendations:

  • Keep your Chromebook OS up to date (For instructions, click here.)
  • Periodically, clear cache browsing files from your Chrome browser (For instructions, click here.)
  • Cookies must be enabled (For instructions, click here.)
  • Adjust Pop-up Blocker (For instructions, click here.)

 

Additional Support:  How To Download Rich Text Format Files (.rtf) via Google Drive: 

You may download "rtf" files available in your vhlcentral/Supersite programs' Resources library to your Google Drive.  Keep in mind that you will need a Google account.
