Google Timer

If you ever need a quick timer during class, simply open a new Google search. Type "timer" into the search bar. The very first result should be a timer that looks like the above photo. It is automatically set to countdown from 5-minutes, and beeps will sound at the end. You may adjust the length of time by clicking on any of the numbers (hours, minutes, or seconds). Then type in the length of time you desire, including seconds. (For example, you have to enter 4 0 0 to set the timer at four minutes.) You may also turn off the sound by clicking the volume button in the top right corner of the timer. (Or, just must your projector or computer.) And, if you'd like the timer to be the only item showing on the screen, click the box image in the top right corner of the timer. Once you have it ready, click "start." If you are timing multiple pieces in a row, click "reset." This will reset the timer to your last settings. Only reset the time if you are ready to use it, though. It starts the countdown immediately.
