Teaching with Computers (a tip from 180 Technology Tips at http://www.180techtips.com/108.htm)
1. Have students turn off their monitors while the teacher gives directions.
2. Try everything before you have the students in front of you.
3. If your lab has management software learn to use it. (Some of the labs at the MS and HS have Vision software for management)
4. Don't forget to check the Taskbar on student monitors as you wander around the computer lab. Students can easily wander off task when using a computer and many of them are experts at hiding what they're doing. They'll quickly minimize the windows they don't want you to see. Just remember to check the Taskbar at the bottom of their screen.
