While split-screening tabs on a Chromebook is as easy as
Alt + [ or ], why limit yourself to that when you can split them into two completely different windows? This makes it so much easier when referencing longer articles or expense sheets when writing homework or reports.
The increase in productivity that you can get from this kind of setup is reason enough to invest in a good external monitor. It s perfect if you re working from home for the foreseeable future, and it can even be beneficial for your kid so that they aren t stuck with just the 11.6-inch screen on their school-issued Chromebook. Yes, it s nice when you can have your screens all the same size, but I don t think your child will begrudge having a 20-inch or 24-inch monitor to spread out their notes on when studying or trying to rush a project at the last moment.
