Whenever you see odd behavior with an online application like Aspen, Google Drive, Google Classroom, etc., it can often be fixed by clearing your browser\u2019s cache. To do this on a Chromebook, you can hold down the ctrl + shift + backspace keys to pull up a dialog box allowing you to clear your browsing information. On the \u201cBasic\u201d tab, you want to change the time range to \u201cAll time\u201d and start with the \u201cCached images and files\u201d checkbox. That usually solves any problems related to cache, but if it doesn\u2019t, you can try checking \u201cCookies and other site data,\u201d as cookies can sometimes cause problems as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can also try just hard refreshing the current page you\u2019re on by holding down the ctrl, or shift, or cmd keys while clicking the reload\/refresh option in the browser, but often it\u2019s not enough to clear just one page and reloading\/refreshing doesn\u2019t always work well on a database, or form-backed page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All web browsers also have functionality to clear cache within their file system as well, so you can clear cache on any web browser through its menus as well. If you run a quick search engine search<\/a> on your type of web browser and \u201cclear cache\u201d you\u2019ll easily be able to find the instructions for any major web browser on Mac, Windows, or Linux.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
