Draft a Table of Contents

Determine the features and corresponding page number you’d like to appear within the yearbook.

Use the Google Sheet which has been shared by your Rockstar Consultant

Collect & Review Content

– Collect articles, photos and student profile responses as soon as possible. End of year approaches fast, so set a content deadline and communicate this with your peers frequently.

– Review all article text for spelling, grammar and appropriateness.

– Organise all files into a master Yearbook folder. Create sub-folders named by their page number which matches the Table of Contents Google Sheet (see Phase 1).

– Share the master Yearbook folder with Rockstar via these Google Drive or Dropbox accounts:

• Google Drive:  [email protected]
• Dropbox:  [email protected]

Collecting Student Profiles

– Choose the profile questions which you’d like all students to complete.

– To collect responses, either You or Rockstar can manage:

You manage: Create a  Google Form asking all profile questions. When all responses are collected and edited, share the sheet with [email protected]

or Rockstar manages: E-mail your list of profile questions to your Rockstar Consultant, and we will create a Grade Website URL to share with students.

 Do not use a Word document to collect profile responses. This will introduce significant errors and delays.
