  2. How to HANDLE Laptops (Overview) Laptops should always be CLOSED when not in use. Once you are seated and ready to work is when you open the laptop and login. Once you have completed the assignment or assessment, shutdown the laptop and CLOSE the lid.

  3. Laptops should always be CLOSED when not in use. Best Practices • When removing the laptop from a cart and returning to your desk, the laptop should be CLOSED. It is recommended to hold it with two hands as shown. • When walking with a laptop, the laptop should be CLOSED. • When turning in the laptop and when placing it back in the cart for charging, the laptop should be CLOSED.

  4. Parts of a Laptop Laptop SCREEN: Displays the image (INSIDE of the BLUE lines). BEZEL: The hard plastic FRAME around the Screen. (OUTSIDE of the BLUE lines) HINGES: Flexible joints that allow the laptop screen to close onto the base. Charging Port: The port on the laptop that the laptop CHARGER plugs into. BASE: The BOTTOM portion of the laptop that contains the visible keyboard and mousepad.

  5. Using the Laptop when OPEN (as shown below) BEZEL: To adjust screen glare, we can touch the BEZEL (Plastic Frame) to move forward or backward. Do NOT touch the screen! • SCREENS are fragile and damage easily • NEVER PICKUP a laptop by the screen • Do not touch the screens Our Laptops are not Touchscreen!

  6. Parts of a Laptop II The TOP portion of a laptop is sometimes referred to as the LID, found above the HINGES and contains the SCREEN. • NEVER close the laptop with papers or any other object between the screen (LID) and the BASE. BASE: The BOTTOM portion of the laptop that contains the visible keyboard and mousepad.

  7. Best Practices for using Laptops and Carts • Label all parts. Students will easily know which laptop# goes on which shelf#. Chargers (batteries and the power cables) are not all the same. Label your chargers as well. Assessment laptops, chargers and carts are checked out to the schools and are different from the other student laptops, chargers, and carts already at the schools. Differentiating between assessment equipment (via labeling methods) is strongly recommended. • • Note: Charging light locations are different (cord vs. battery)
