Laptop Cart Procedures
1. If your class has 25 students or less, assign them a computer number. They should use the same computer every time. This will deter them from vandalizing the computers. If you class has more than 25 students, you may request a few computers from another cart. 2. When the students take the computer, have them examine it as soon as they get back to their desks. If there are any problems, have them report it to you immediately. 3. Have the students start up their computers and log in. 4. When they are finished, have the students shutdown their computers and bring them up to you. 5. When they turn in their computer, have them open up their computers and show you the keyboard and screen. 6. You place their computers back on the cart in the proper location, plug them in and make sure that they are charging.
