Professional+Dev.

What professional development is needed by teachers on your campus to achieve Target Tech in the key area of Teaching and Learning?
NetSupport to manage lab How to manage a lab

[|amueller1954] Many of our teachers are reluctant to go to the lab on their own because they do not feel confident managing a lab situation. Maybe some mandatory, hands on training for Net support? (I don't know how this could be easily facilitated.) Maybe a basic hardware troubleshooting guide for the lab? Many do not teach the students "how to" do something (like make a word table) before they require it. They just give them an instruction page and tell them to do it on their own. Maybe a class on how to teach different application features? Same for PowerPoint - many require the students to do a PPT presentation but do not go over the items that make a good presentation (uniform fonts, color schemes, etc.). Maybe some staff dev on specific items that need to be taught for each Office application? Maybe basic layout/formatting considerations for documents. (copied from Discussion section)
