  1. Using Wireless Laptops August Academy August 2, 2007 Kerry George

  2. Objectives • How it all works • How to deal with technical issues • Helpful hints – What I learned by experience • What can be done with them • What are the risks

  3. How Do They Work? • Work like being at computer wired to network • Like having computer lab in classroom • Can have each student on computer • Can log in to network just like desktop • Search internet • Administer tests • Teach how to use WebCT, e-mail • Demonstrate searching

  4. Keeping Computers Charged • Charging of computers • Keep cart is plugged in • Keep cart switch in correct position • Keep computers plugged in when not in use • Do not use outlet for printer or wireless • Charge will last 2 – 2 ½ hours • Plug laptop in if needed longer than this • Assure laptops are connected to charger when returned

  5. Delays In Starting • Time needed to turn on when computer is shut down • Shorter time if user logs off rather than shutting down • Last user did not log off computer and it is locked • Computer is still running with last user logged onto it

  6. Quickest Start-up • Last user logged off – seconds to log on screen • Last user shut down – minutes to log on screen • Last user did not log off – need to log person off computer • Can be quicker than shut down

  7. Logging Off User • Alt-Ctrl-Del – Lists user and asks for password • Replace name with yours and your password • Will bring up Windows Message • “This will log off the current user. Any unsaved work will be lost.” • Click OK • Logs person off – Alt-Ctrl-Del to log in screen

  8. Touchpad • Input device used on these computers • Slide finger to move cursor • Touching is like mouse button click • Also two sets of mouse buttons • Takes some practice – use computer before high stakes use • Alternative is blue button between G, H and B keys • Moving it will move cursor in same direction

  9. Input Devices • Students can use mouse of they bring one • Must connect through USB port • Practice will improve accuracy and comfort with built-in devices

  10. What I Have Learned So Far • Best to have students assigned a computer • Best to log off rather than shut down • Students need practice with input and output • Students are not as computer savvy as we may be led to believe • Make students use the laptops to become comfortable

  11. What I Have Learned So Far • Technology is most likely to fail when you need it the most • Be flexible and adaptable • It is helpful to walk around when students are using the laptops • Students may not ask for assistance when needed • Never assume computers are connected and charging

  12. What I Have Learned So Far • Most students like to use the laptops once they become accustomed to them • Have someone as a support to you with technical issues • Have 7300 on speed dial

  13. What Can You Do • Teach students to use technology • Read their e-mail • Use WebCT • Search beyond Google • Take tests • Check documentation • Complete surveys • Your Ideas

  14. Search A Site • Go to Kerry George’s web site on DMACC server • By DMACC Home Page • By URL (www.dmacc.edu/instructors/kegeorge) • By search engine (difficult in this case) • Find link to August Academy • Find link to Web Site Assignment

  15. Search A Site • What are the benefits of membership in the AARC? • Identify the location of the International Congress in December • Explain how to register for the Congress on-line • Who is Dr. Tom (Not former Iowa and Drake basketball coach) • Who was president of the AARC in 1997 • What do you find interesting here

  16. Take A Test • Can be used for proctored WebCT tests • Can be used for Internet delivered tests • Return to August Academy page • Select LXRTest • Log in with your e-mail address • Password is laptop • Do not worry about questions and answers as you are not being tested • Submit a comment to instructor • Click on cover to finish test
