GOOGLE APPS
Instructions for your gnspes.ca account setup are below.
GMail, Google Docs and Google Drive - Introduction to Google Apps (gnspes.ca)
You can use google docs as a school e-mail account and as well to create and share documents, slide - shows, surveys, forms and much more. It has about
32 gb of space so you do not need to use a flash drive to save your work when using your account. It saves automatically.
Beginning Set-Up:
Google docs works best on Google Chrome or Firefox. It does work when you use internet explorer but not as well.
1.To set up your account, go to the following website; https://selfservice.nspes.ca/cgi-bin/account.pl
2. You will need your student ID (a nine digit number that will be given to you and your birth date).
3. Write down your username. Be sure to include "@gnspes.ca" at the end
Create a password (use one that you will remember, for example: your sister’s middle name, your mothers name etc…)
Your password must include three different types of characters.
A good idea might be a capital letter at the beginning of the word and an exclamation at the end. ( George!)
4. Go to gnspes.ca (this goes in the url address bar at the top of your page)
--->fill in your new username __________@gnspes.ca and password.
