Best Practices for Working with Technology:

 * 1) **Start with the end product in mind** and decide which technology would best get the objectives across to the audience. Don't use technology just to use technology. Exam reviews and culminating projects might be a good reason to think about using technology in the near future.
 * 2) **Give the rubric and the assignment together**, at the beginning of the project. Having the rubric in hand will guide students to know what to include into their product.
 * 3) **Show a final product**! There are 2 reasons for this: a. It helps if you go through the process first so that you know where the challenges are and b. modeling is always a good thing! Students need a frame of reference as well as a starting point.
 * 4) **Discuss what makes the "model" a good product!** What are the attributes that make it good? And what might you do to improve upon the product?
 * 5) **Keep It Simple, for the Student (KISS**). As you start out using the technology, keep it simple. The advanced stuff can come later. You will have a lot more success and feel a lot better about the finished products if you keep this in mind.
 * 6) **Teachers need to be actively involved in computer lab situations**. Active teaching requires being actively invovled with the work that each student is working to complete. You should know where in the task your students are at all times. In the lab, you are a coach and a facilitator.
