3. Classroom Management Teachers are expected to manage students while they are using laptops. If you cannot see what they are doing, you are not managing them. Report any computer use contract violations to an IT administrator. – These include: Key switching and/or removal. Attempts to add programs or change settings. Monitor set up and clean up. Establish laptop assistants who help monitor set up and clean up. Model correct set up and clean up procedures for students.

4. Set Up and Clean Up Help students cleanly remove and return computers. Remind students to unplug laptops carefully without yanking power cords loose. Require students to carry laptops securely. Ensure laptops are plugged in and placed in the correct slot at the end of class. If a laptop is removed for maintenance or repair, put a sticky note in the slot of the missing computer. Do not allow students from other classes to remove laptops from your classroom.

5. Final Words on Cart Use The more care and time you take with computers, the longer they will last. Students only do what they can get away with, so set a standard and stick to it. For your convenience, there is a student version of this PowerPoint, which you can access from the MS/US Library Wiki.

13. Tips and Tricks Students do not need a user name and password to log in to Twists. – Encourage students to use same computer consistently for this reason. – This is also a good rationale for returning computers to the correct slot in the cart. – Encourage students to delete their files from the computers after completing their projects and assignments. When students shut the lid, the Twist will shut down.
