3. OBJECTIVE
Provide practical ideas for classroom management in
a 1:1 classroom.

4. WHAT WORKS NOW?
What techniques do you use that help you to create
the type of learning environment you want in your
class (to keep students on task)?

5. TECH MADNESS?

6. LESSON DESIGN
Remember:
Technology is a tool.
Teaching isn’t about the
tool.
Curriculum drives the
technology.
“O2” - ubiquitous,
necessary, invisible

7. LESSON DESIGN
Use backward design.
Project-based learning (PBL).
Authentic assessments.
Students as producers of content.
Collaboration (in class & global).

8. INCORPORATE ISTE’S 4 C’S
Communication - Prepare students to be effective
communicators.
Collaboration - Use online tools to discuss ideas,
share research, collaborate.
Creativity - Promote writing, artwork, videos, and
combinations of them.
Community - Create a community of learners to
deepen knowledge through interaction.

9. EXPECTED LEARNING RESULTS
Exhibit Citizenship
Communicate Effectively
Think Creatively and Reason Critically
Utilize Information and Technology Effectively

11. UNDERSTAND
If you have poor management now, laptops won’t
change that.
Adding laptops doesn’t mean more learning.
Adding technology to a boring lesson does not
necessarily make the lesson more interesting.

12. BEFORE THE STUDENTS ARRIVE
Have clear expectations.
Plan well.
Use technology with a purpose.
Test your lesson on a student computer.
Distribute links, handouts, and other resources
online. (wiki?)

13. BEFORE THE STUDENTS ARRIVE
Think about what works for you:
Headphones? Music?
Chat?
E-mail?
“Multitasking?”
Rearrange your furniture?
Consequences?

14. PRACTICAL TIPS
Laptops fully charged at 8:00 am.
RATS - Read All The Screen.
Students should be willing to help each other.
“45 your screen.”
If the teacher closes the laptop, only the teacher opens it.
MBWA - Management By Walking Around
