| I
was worried that I wouldn't be able to handle any computer technical
difficulties that came up when in the lab.
|
I
arranged to have the technology teacher in the lab with my class
to help with these kinds of problems and to also assist with the
teaching of the unit.
|
| I
was afraid that students would spend too much time accessing
inappropriate sites (e.g. Brittany Spears home page). |
I
reviewed our school's Acceptable Use Policy with students every
time we went to the computer lab. I also made sure that they had a
clear understanding of what they needed to accomplish during the
computer lab time.
|
| Even
after reviewing our school's AUP with students, I was concerned about
some students sending inappropriate email messages. |
The
technology teacher suggested using Gaggle.net which is a free
email service for students that allows teachers to monitor and
review students' email.
