Reflecting upon the school year thus far, what things have gone well with using netbooks in your classroom. Please list a few items. |
Blogging has added a new element to my classroom. We have used a lot of on line games to support things like states & capitals, the Constitution, Census, and many more topics.
|
Reflecting upon the use of netbooks in your classroom this year, what are some simple things that would make them a more useful tool in your classroom. |
It would be nice if they didn't have to share but had their own to use for all classes. It would make it easier for them to save their work and not have to worry about it being only on the computer they use.
|
Please share any further comments, questions, suggestions, or concerns in the provided space. |
Most of the students take good care of the computer but you always have a few that just don't care. I worry that as they have them every year they will not be as careful because it will be old to them. It will be a challenge to keep them interested.
