GoogleApps for Education

Providing Rockbridge Seminary students with learning tips, ministry resources, and course upgrade news 

On October 30th we released GoogleApps for Education to our entire student, faculty, and staff population. This new service brought Rockbridge branded email, calendar, office suite, and chat with even more features to be released in the future.

We setup each feature with its own url for easy access from any computer.

Email can be accessed here: http://mail.rsconnect.org
Docs (office suite) here: http://docs.rsconnect.org
Calendar here: http://calendar.rsconnect.org
and the ‘Sites’ here: http://www.rsconnect.org

If not logged in already it will redirect the user to the classroom login page just to login, successfully submitting credintials on the login page redirects the user back to whatever page they were trying to reach originally. So instead of logging in through Google’s servers students, faculty, and staff simply login through the online classroom’s servers.

    GoogleApps are all great, I love gmail and google calendar – they are so convenient and help me a lot in my work!

    Update: We’ve had a long time goal of providing student centric groups outside of the classroom. We originally intended GoogleApps/Groups to provide this. After much testing and waiting on Google to upgrade Groups, we decided it best to not use Google Groups for the student centric area.

    Our courseware provider and partner, Comcourse, graciously allowed us to create a classroom just for this student group area. Latte Heaven is in a "beta" testing now and students are loving it.

    However, the ‘Sites" link above does not work as it was the planned student group area url under GoogleApps.

    If you’re a student let us know what you think about the new Latte Heaven.
