Computer Access

I teach in a temporary and in turn do not have any computers in my classroom for students to use. However, our school has two computer labs, one of the labs is based on a sign up process. The other computer lab is used by each teacher that teaches a discipline tested on the MSA's. This computer lab is used to allow students to practice their MSA skills through a program called study island. Students in Math, Science, and Language Arts go to the computer lab once a week in each of the three disciplines. My school also has 3 mobile labs. These are laptop computers that travel to classrooms and teachers are allowed to use them during instruction. Each student has access to a computer equipped with Internet at their own desk. As teachers we also have the technology to control all laptop computers, deciding what the students are and are not allowed to view. They can be required to only see what is being seen on the teachers computer or be allowed to surf the Internet visiting appropriate sites at will.
