Changing the Keyboard Language on a Chromebook
We have been getting MANY students and teachers telling us that what they type on the keyboard is not what they see on the screen. This can cause issues with signing into the Chromebooks as well as everyday assignments. If this issue occurs the cause is most likely that the Keyboard Language was changed to something other than "US English". To check or fix this do the following:
- Before you login to the Chromebook look at the area on the bottom right corner where you see the "time"
If this area shows something other than "US" (as shown above) then the keyboard language is incorrectly set. - Click on the "time" on the bottom right corner of the screen
- In the "popup" window that appears click on "Keyboard"
- A list of languages will appear, choose "US English"
- Once the proper language is set a "blue check" will be shown.
- Click on the "time" again and this menu will go away.
- The Keyboard Language should now show in the bottom right corner as US
