== <b>Office365</b> ==

The school provides all students, faculty, and staff with a Microsoft Office365 account which includes the installation of the full Office suite on up to five different devices.  In addition, online versions of the most popular Office programs are available through a web browser.  All of this can be accessed by going to [https://www.office.com office.com] or by clicking on the “Webmail” link at the bottom of the AAC website homepage.

=== <sub><b>OneNote</b></sub> ===
 +
OneNote can be seen as an online class notebook, one that contains a "shared" space, and a "private" space for notes and documents.  The shared spaces take the form of collaborative and distributive in that you can either collaborate on one document or whiteboard, or you can simply grab handouts or other pertinent documents on your own via a "read-only" library.  Private spaces give you your own personal notebook to work within, that only you and your instructors have access to.  Instructors can also add material to a student's personal notebook if more precise, granular needs are required.  There are very few limits as to what type of digital material you can add to a notebook, including audio recordings, links to online videos, etc.

=== <sub><b>OneDrive</b></sub> ===
 +
OneDrive is the cloud storage service of Office365.  All AAC users have 5TB (terabytes) of online storage, which is an ample amount of storage that typically exceeds the storage capacity of most laptops or desktops.  You may store any type of (legal) files you like in your OneDrive storage, and only you have access to those files unless you share them out using the various supported sharing methods.  Please bear in mind, OneDrive synchronizes your storage among all your devices, so if you delete something on one device, it will delete it from all devices.  If you accidentally delete something and need to restore it, you'll need to access the web version of OneDrive to access the "Recycling Bin".  More information can be found in the link and videos below.

Microsoft Teams is a tool all faculty, students, and staff can use to communicate and collaborate with your fellow peers at the AAC.  Use of Teams for class purposes is completely up to the instructor; they may or may not use it.  But students are free to use it to communicate and collaborate with their peers as much as they want or need.  Teams allows a class to discuss topics in a “chat room” type environment, or an instructor can chat one-to-one with a student in a more private, secure manner.  Teams also integrates with Office365 cloud storage services OneDrive and Sharepoint to create a cloud-based repository for class files (such as syllabi, reading, or demonstration materials) that allows students to retrieve these materials as needed.  The “Assignments” section of Teams enables instructors to create quizzes, tests, or other types of assignments that require students to turn in material for grading purposes.  For more information on Office365 and Teams, you can go to Microsoft’s support page by going to support.office.com.

== <b>Adobe Creative Cloud</b> ==
 +
So long as you are enrolled at the Art Academy, you have access to Creative Cloud.  However, if you take a year(s) off, you may have your license removed until you return to the school.  To access Creative Cloud, you'll simply navigate to [https://www.adobe.com Adobe.com] and sign in with your school email address and password.  After that, you'll want to download the Creative Cloud app itself, not individual applications like Photoshop or Illustrator, that will come later.  Once Creative Cloud is downloaded and installed, you'll want to open it and sign in again with your school email account, and then you can pick and choose which apps you'd like to install.  You can also manage your Adobe cloud storage as well if you'd like to use that as opposed to OneDrive.  All Creative Cloud users receive 250GB of Creative Cloud storage.
