Preparing for Laptops 4 Learning

Sunday, 10 May 2009 | 6 Comments

Term 3 will see the roll-out of netbooks to Year 9 at my school (some photos of the Lenovo S10e).

I’ve been thinking about how to prepare for this roll-out in my own teaching.

1. Classroom Management

I need to prepare some rules, routines and structures for the use of the machines in my classroom – which will either stand-alone or be part of a school-wide approach.  I’ve been gathering some resources as a starting point.
2. Resources

I roughly know what topics I’ll be teaching Year 9 in Terms 3 and 4, so I’ve created a Wiki to start organising resources I find, in particular those I’ve previously collected in Delicious.

Are you getting prepared for netbooks in your classroom?
