It is so important to help students with their onine learning and to be engaged with them. Even though students are using the computer, it is necessary to be actively involved instead of just sitting behind the desk thinking the computer will do all the teaching for you.

It seems that students need to be reminded over and over about proper computer ettiquette. Some of them just don't see the harm or the danger in some of the things that they do. Developing rules/ standards with other teachers or having building wide standards is necessary. It is also important to post the rules and have set consequences for inappropriate use.

It iis so important that teachers tell our students what the learning objectives are and give students very clear, step by step instructions on how to meet those objectives.
