John Holt asked in the title of his 1970 book, "What Do I Do Monday?". Nearly four decades later, armed with a classroom set of laptops, we might as "What Do I Set Up For Them To Do Monday?"

In some ways, the laptop changes nothing. Education was possible without laptops, and laptops used thoughtlessly could even interfere with the learning process. So, any discussion of what to do with laptops should not begin with the trendy new tool, but with fundamentals of instructional planning. What do kids do in classes (laptops or not)?



In this in-service colloquium, we will present our favorite Mac Tools and our favorite Web Tools, and give a chance for you to work with veterans to set up an e-toolbox of your own!

After you hear about a variety of E-Tools in the opening session, go to this page to make choices for the workshop after the break!
