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.

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.

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.

• To lock screen orientation, press button just above power button.

• Touch pad sometimes lags; use touch screen if you need more precision.
