Dear LM-Net Friends, I have a similar situation in my media center. The two computer labs are part of the media center but that is not the issue. I very often see teachers brining classes to the labs to complete assignments. They give up valuable teaching time to allow kids to type papers. I think the computers have blurred the line between classroom teaching and homework time. Any thoughts on this type of computer usage? (and PLEASE don't give me the old 'not everyone has computer access at home' speech. The library is open before school, during lunch and after school. Also many kids have studyhalls so they have plenty of opportunity to use computers. I find that kids aren't writing rough drafts anymore they are cutting pasting and printing and using classtime to do homework.
