Extractions: NOTE: You will have to perform these steps every time you sit down to a new Mac, or if you reboot. When you reboot, a program called RevRDist will remove the Russian software and return the Mac to its pristine original condition. On campus, teaching your computer Russian can be quite easy, if you do one thing: Use a Macintosh. The Mac treats Russian fonts the same as any other font. That means that unlike the PC, it requires no additional language support. And don't worry about the fact that the Russian alphabet is different and has more characters. The keyboard layout that we use corresponds almost exactly to the English phonetic equivalents, i.e. the Russian letter "C" is on the key for the English letter "S." This make typing far easier than you might imagine. Also, Macs have a function under the Apple menu, Key Caps, that shows the Russian keyboard layout. This saves much time when you do not know which keys correspond to which Russian letters. This is not an endorsement, just realistic advice: Use a Macintosh.

http://www.musickit.com/resources/allabreve.html

Extractions: by Kit Eakle This is a short survey of methods for using computers in elementary school classrooms. I believe that computers can be used in elementary classes, both by music and classroom teachers, making music more accessible to all. However computer music can never replace real, personal music experiences. In the current climate of program and budget cutbacks, it is becoming increasingly rare for classroom music to be taught by specialists. While we can never give in to this trend, perhaps computers can help less experienced teachers address their students' needs a little more effectively, bringing a new tool to help us achieve our goal of providing music literacy for all. In most jurisdictions music curriculum at the elementary level is intended for ALL teachers, specialists and non-specialists. With this in mind, any tools that classroom teachers can use to expose students to music literacy, must be welcomed. Computers, as we shall see, are quite capable of providing this exposure. Before discussing how technology can be used in this situation, however, it is important to make very clear what computers can NOT do. The foremost of these is that the computer can NEVER replace the child's physical involvement with music. The students' most important early experiences with music must include singing and moving to music. Computers must never inhibit these important experiences. Secondly, a computer can NOT replace a good music teacher. While computers can support and supplement music teaching, computers can NOT replace the understanding and personal contact of a good music teacher in our school music programs.

Extractions: in Adult Education The Importance of Computers in ESL Classes ... Upcoming Events by Tammy Allen Let's look at Eduardo who is an English-as-a-second language learner. He's working on English spelling and syntax, improving reading fluency and comprehension, and he wants to learn some keyboarding and Internet basics because he often must order supplies online for his job and write short memos and reports to his boss. Eduardo's teacher can design lessons that encompass all of his objectives using an Internet-accessible computer. The lesson design could look something like this: Lesson 1 Lesson 2 - reinforce keyboard familiarity with more typing practice using word families. Extend this exercise to include typing sentences using the word family lists. Have the learner read his sentences aloud to self-check for syntactical and stylistic errors. Discuss and re-teach as necessary. Introduce the spell check and/or grammar check features of the word processing system. Conduct another Internet search of the learner's choosing. This would be a good time to discuss reliability of Internet sources: typically those associated with universities or research facilities are reliable, while those associated with commercial endeavors are not always so. The learner will read selected passages from his search, while the teacher assesses comprehension, including vocabulary building.

Extractions: Saskatchewan Education recognizes the need for quality instruction of keyboarding skills in the elementary grades. The following recommendations should be considered. Touch keyboarding is provided in the elementary grades so that students can transfer their keyboarding skills thereby making efficient use of computers in all subject areas. Production aspects of the traditional typewriting courses such as proper formatting of correspondence, tabulations, and manuscripts should not be taught extensively until students reach higher grades. Quality instruction in touch keyboarding skills should take place before students are expected to make extensive use of the keyboard or typewriter in language arts, science, mathematics, or any other area of study. The skill of touch keyboarding should be integrated across the curriculum and applied whenever students are required to use or have access to the computer/typewriter. Because the skill is to be used in all subject areas, it is recommended that the time required to teach touch keyboarding be taken proportionally from all areas of study. Adequate practice time is necessary to make the students comfortable with all aspects of touch keyboarding before integration of the skill across the curriculum.

Extractions: live in a small town in Kansas and have taught first grade for 30 years. I have had a computer in my classroom for several years. My elementary school uses Macintosh computers. Each classroom has at least two computers. We also have a computer lab with 25 computers. My classroom has three iMacs and one Apple LCII for my students to use and I have one iMac for my own use. During reading groups, computers are used as part of my daily centers. The children have approximately 20 minutes to use a variety of software. Choices include Kid Pix Deluxe, Sammy's Science House, JumpStart First Grade, Thinkin' Things Collection 1, JumpStart Typing, Math Rabbit, Reader Rabbit 1 and Reader Rabbit 2, and several other programs. Occasionally I have a project for my students to complete but mostly they have free choice. Sometimes they practice what we have learned in the computer lab.

Extractions: Shop Welcome Reviews Table of contents ... Safe Computing for the College Bound Introduction for Educators You may be wondering, "what use can this book have to an educator?" But in fact, this book can be an outstanding (if not essential) resource for teachers at the middle school, high school, or university level. With computers prevalent in today's classrooms, many teachers tend to focus exclusively on using the computer and rarely deal with security issues. It's not uncommon for classroom computers to be infected with viruses and spyware - especially in those classrooms where students are allowed to browse the internet or install their own software. Computer security should be a basic first step covered in every class where a computer is used - even those that aren't specifically computer classes. The first class session should spend some time teaching how to verify that an antivirus program is present, a firewall is installed, and the software is up to date. Even the youngest students should be taught not to open attachments and to be careful which websites they visit. This book, while directed to teens, contains everything a teacher would need to know to introduce this topic - in fact, I know of one teacher who has a preview copy who is already building several lesson plans around it. Equally important, this book shows educators how computers are really being used by their students, so they can offer guidance that is truly relevant to their students, and not just adapted from guidelines written for adults.
Computers In Our Classrooms
computers in Our Classrooms. Wendy L. Buckley, M.Ed. computer Teacher/Specialist Standard computer keyboards present a challenge for many children.
http://www.deafblind.com/classroom.html

Extractions: Emphasis on technology in schools has made computers available to children in educational programs throughout the country. Books are brought to life on the screen,and children explore the world from their desktops via the World Wide Web. With modifications of hardware and software, teachers of children who are deafblind can take advantage of this exciting technology to enhance communication development, educational activities, and leisure time. A child's physical, sensory, and cognitive abilities play important roles in determining appropriate computer activities. Although all three areas overlap, computer input and output methods are primarily determined by physical and sensory abilities; selection of educational software programs is determined by a child's cognitive abilities and educational objectives. This article presents an overview of computer modifications, adaptive equipment, and selected software programs used with children in the Deafblind Program at Perkins School for the Blind. Many other modifications and software programs are available that are appropriate for deafblind children. The examples and ideas presented here can be applied to a variety of other types of computer equipment and programs. For additional information, see the resources listed at the end of the article. Input Methods Most computer systems use a keyboard and/or mouse for input to the computer. These devices present a barrier for many deafblind children because of visual or physical limitations. The following suggestions address how to work with a standard keyboard or mouse as well as alternatives to these devices.
