login screen

Vygotsky & ScaffoldingModel the correct performance of a task

• Teachers modeled with projector in the lab how to use the MyFiles System

• Students were then allowed to login and view the MyFiles System

Vygotsky & ScaffoldingDivide a complex task into several smaller, simpler activities (See Goal Analysis on http://LTMS500DN.wikispaces.com)

Keep students motivated to complete the task• The Computer Teachers gave extra credit to students who
