# Google Workspace for Education: Challenge Lab - GSP362

## **Overview**

In a challenge lab you’re given a scenario and a set of tasks. Instead of following step-by-step instructions, you will use the skills learned from the labs in the course to figure out how to complete the tasks on your own! An automated scoring system (shown on this page) will provide feedback on whether you have completed your tasks correctly.

When you take a challenge lab, you will not be taught new Google Cloud concepts. You are expected to extend your learned skills, like changing default values and reading and researching error messages to fix your own mistakes.

To score 100% you must successfully complete all tasks within the time period!

### Topics tested

* Setting up a role-oriented structure
    
* Create access groups
    
* Adding users and managing credentials
    
* Enable/disable services
    
* Configure user access to services
    

## **Setup and requirements**

### Before you click the Start Lab button

Read these instructions. Labs are timed and you cannot pause them. The timer, which starts when you click **Start Lab**, shows how long Google Cloud resources will be made available to you.

This hands-on lab lets you do the lab activities yourself in a real cloud environment, not in a simulation or demo environment. It does so by giving you new, temporary credentials that you use to sign in and access Google Cloud for the duration of the lab.

To complete this lab, you need:

* Access to a standard internet browser (Chrome browser recommended).
    

**Note:** Use an Incognito or private browser window to run this lab. This prevents any conflicts between your personal account and the Student account, which may cause extra charges incurred to your personal account.

* Time to complete the lab---remember, once you start, you cannot pause a lab.
    

**Note:** If you already have your own personal Google Cloud account or project, do not use it for this lab to avoid extra charges to your account.

### Start your lab

When you are ready, click **Start Lab** in the upper left.

### Sign in to the Google Workspace Admin Console

To access the Google Workspace Admin Console, you must find your credentials and then sign in.

#### **Find your lab's User Email and Password**

To access the resources and console for this lab, locate the **User Email** and **Password** in the Lab Details panel. This panel is on the left or at the top, depending on the width of the browser window. Use these credentials to log in to the Google Workspace Admin Console.

If your lab requires other resource identifiers or connection-related information, they appear on this panel as well.

#### **Sign in to the Admin Console**

1. Click **Open Google Workspace Admin Console**.
    

***Tip:*** Open the tabs in separate windows, side-by-side.

**Note:** If you see the **Verify your account** dialog:

* Click **Next**.
    
* Click the prefilled user.
    
* Click **Use another account**.
    

2. On the Sign in page, log in using the **User Email** and **Password** details provided.
    
3. When prompted, click **I understand** and **ACCEPT TERMS OF SERVICE** to accept all terms and conditions.
    

After a few seconds, the *Admin Console* opens.

4. Right-click **VERIFY DOMAIN** in either the yellow box at the top or the red box in the *Domains* card, and select **Open link in new tab**.
    
    **Note:** To complete this step in a real-life scenario, you'd need to add an actual DNS record.
    
5. Click the new tab, called **Domain setup**, to complete the Google Workspace domain verification steps.
    
6. On the *Let's set up your domain* page, click **Get Started**.
    
7. Select the **My domain uses a different host** checkbox and then click **Continue**.
    
8. At the bottom of the *Add verification code* page, select the **Come back here and confirm once you have updated the code on your domain host** checkbox, and then click **Confirm**.
    
9. Wait until it says **Your domain is verified!** and then close the *Domain setup* tab.
    
    **Note:** Do not click **Activate Gmail**.
    
10. Return to the **Admin Console** tab and refresh the page.
    

## **Challenge scenario**

A school wants to use distance learning for:

* Students not able to attend classes in person
    
* Supervision of `advanced projects`
    

The school, using Google Workspace for Education, will test this approach across one grade level. As the system administrator, you are responsible for:

* Setting up the structure
    
* Adding users
    
* Configuring access to apps and services using organizational units (OUs) and groups.
    

## **Task 1. Set up the structure**

* Set up a role-oriented structure that will have two child OUs "Students" and "Teachers".
    

![The OU structure, Google Workspace Labs is the parent and root OU, Students and Teachers OUs are child OUs](https://cdn.qwiklabs.com/Obv7ThsN2cigQoWyDlM7e9nqsX9%2Bc0f6LybYY8iNjWw%3D align="left")

## **Task 2. Assign access to OUs**

* To help teachers effectively present to the classes, assign access so that: Jamboard is disabled for all users.
    

**Hint:** The settings of parent OU are inherited by the child OUs by default.

Only teachers can use Jamboard.

## **Task 3. Create access groups**

* To address the needs of different classes, create these access groups:
    
    1. `Chemistry` - for the `chemistry` class
        
    2. `History` - for the `history` class
        
    3. `Computer Science` - for the `computer science` class
        
    4. `Advanced Projects` - for work on `advanced projects`

## **Task 4. Password recovery**

* To reduce admin support calls, set password recovery so that:
    
    1. Teachers can reset their own passwords.
        
    2. Students in the `Advanced Projects` group can reset their own passwords.
        
    3. All other students must contact the admin to reset their passwords.

## **Task 5. Set up services**

* To provide the collaboration services required for remote learning, configure the following:
    
    1. Classroom - enabled for all
        
    2. Google Meet - enabled for all
        
    3. Calendar - enable for the `history` teacher and `history` students so they can see the schedule for museum trips
        
    4. Gmail - enable for teachers and only students working on `Advanced Projects` Projects
        
    5. Drive - disable external files sharing for teachers and students

## **Task 6. Configure Google Meet**

1. To ensure class sessions can be managed effectively and securely, configure Google Meet as follows:
    

* Dial-in access is not allowed.
    
* Only teachers and `chemistry` students can record.
    

**Hint:** Disable this option for everyone prior to configuring the above setting.

2. Only users from your domain (organization) can join.
    
3. Only teachers can replace background with an image.
    

**Hint:** Disable this option for everyone prior to configuring the above setting.
