Stamford Adult Education: Resource Review: Dell Laptop
Computers*
Teacher:
Joe Brunner, Stamford Adult Education - GED Preparation
Type of Resource:
Hardware
Description:
Laptop computer with CD availability.
How the resource was used in class:
Individualized instruction using ModuMath and
the Steck-Vaughn GED program.
The things I like most about the resource
are as follows:
Provides flexibility and individualized instruction
within the classroom so that students can still keep one eye on
class activities of interest.
After some initial fear by those not used to
computers, joy. Those who are computer literate love it.
Limitations and suggestions to overcome
shortcomings:
The equipment must be kept locked up and in
school.
Suggest less expensive laptops that can be rented
to take home over a weekend.
Comments:
The teacher will learn how to incorporate the
laptop into class instruction via a SMARTBoard.
