No Annoying Updates

The week I received my classroom's Chromebook cart, I also received my teacher MacBook Pro. I was bombarded, overwhelmed and thrilled all at the same time to have exciting, WORKING technology in my Brighton Area School classroom. I love my MacBook Pro. It is beautiful. However, I have already received a few notifications on updates needing to be downloaded for a variety of different things. I have seen a software update, an update available for iphoto and some annoying boxes keep showing up in the upper right hand corner telling my I have to update something that I don't even know what it is. The Chromebooks have never had any such notifications. Why? It updates by itself! Chromebooks download security and software upgrades automatically so you don't have to! As a teacher, the last thing I have time for is to keep up with updating software for my student technology implemented in my classroom. I need to be busy designing lesson plans that can include technology that I know will work. I also love that all student work can be accessed anywhere, using almost any device. No need for a jump-drive or disk to save work so homework or projects can be worked on at home. Chrome's ingenious marketing line for the Chromebook is "No hassles included". Sounds good to me!
