Microsoft Office Lens, Tiny Scanner, and Fast Scanner are just a few available.Download the file to your phone.Write out the work on paper.Open your pdf converter program. Using your phone’s camera, take a picture of your work one page at a time.Save to the apps default file folder.On an Android it is called file Manager. It is located on your main app listing. On an IPhone if you have iOS 11 or above there is a default file system. If you have iOS 10 or below you will need to download a file manager app from the Apple store.They will save to your default file folder or you can setup a folder just for your work. The apps will allow you to “send to” or “share” your work. You can upload to Drive or send to an email or other place your teacher may designate. If you upload to Drive, you can select the file when you have to upload to Teams.Another way to complete and submit your work is to save the file as a .doc or .docx Microsoft word format. You can download the Word app and complete using Word. Save your file to the chosen file folder and upload to where you submit you work. If You HAVE a Computer with No WiFi Capability (Access from Phone)For those who have a PC or Mac there are a few ways to get you work done. If you have a Smartphone with internet access you can hook up with USB tethering.On Android go to Settings – Network& Internet – USB Tethering; in some instances you will need to attach the USB cable first then activate the USB Tethering. On an IPhone go to Settings – Personal Hotspot (if it is not there, tap Carrier and you will see it); connect with USB cable and the phone should auto connect.The second way is to use a Bluetooth connection. With this this function will be in the same area as the USB Tethering. You will need a PC or Mac that has Bluetooth installed. If none of those work, you can install the PdaNet+ for both Android and IPhone to connect to PC or Mac for puter with WiFi Capability, but no Internet AccessIf you only a have Wi-Fi capability on your device, but cannot access the Internet, you will need to find a Wi-Fi connection to upload and download. If any your neighbors have Wi-Fi, ask if you could use it for just your school work. Don’t abuse the connection because some are data limited. Let them know when you are using and when you are not.With travel bans in effect, going out is not recommended. However, it is possible to park at some locations to use their free internet: home schools, libraries, Tim Hortons, McDonalds, Burger King, etc.Do a search for Pay As You Go Internet and you will find many providers. These are similar to Pay As You Go phone plans.Call your service provider and see if they may have program in place to help students with their internet needs. They may have one put in place just for the situation. ................
