* Go through it twice, slowly as a class
* Demonstrate different problems people have had and ask students for troubleshooting solutions
* Students will perform this process up to 30 times over the next two class periods for memorization
Assessment Strategies
Typing
* Students will take a typing pre-test * After each module students will take a skill check to test their typing ability, they must pass it at 10wpm 90%accuracy in order to move on to the next lesson * After they go through all of the modules they will take a post-test * Every week they will take a typing test to check their skill improvement * Students not performing at level will take remedial typing
Server
* Students will perform correct logging in, navigation, and logging out for a partner who reports their grade to the teacher * Students will demonstrate their ability to save correctly the server to the teacher * Students will demonstrate their ability to move a misplaced file to the right location to the teacher * Students not performing at level will watch a screen capture of the entire process and practice it again and again until they feel ready to retake the performance test.
