No Going On Websites That Are Not Approved.

 This rule can be a catch-all for preventing the distractions of endless (and unrelated) internet searches.

One way to do this is to create a list of “approved sites”. However, I’ve found this restricts students from having the freedom to make the most of the internet.

So, instead, consider a list of websites that you don’t want your students to use, such as:

  • Social Media Websites.
  • Gaming Websites.
  • Sites Unrelated to the Task.

Don’t Change The Settings.

Ever logged onto a computer and realized… damnit, a student has done something here. Some smart alec has made the cursor move really fast, or made it make a fart noise every time you click. Or the computer’s default language is now Russian. The most common one, though, is a new background screen … made on MS paint, of course (hello, 1995). So I simply reinforce the rule: don’t change the settings. Any settings. At all  Period. Rules of the Lab . (s. f.).

Wash Your Hands Before Using The Computer.

Imagen
Students walk into the classroom with dirty, sticky and snooty hands   all the time . This is especially true of classes that take place straight after a lunch break. I enforce a “wash your hands before class” rule. No one wants sticky keyboard that, so one or later, will end up with with broken and useless keys.

Eyes On The Speak

  It is so frustrating when you start speaking and. the whole class keep clicking away at their screen. For some reason, computers are just  so  addictive for students. They will be so engrossed in their task that they totally ignore your voice.
