We are ‘Self Managing’
Respect the equipment (remember it cost a lot of money)Press lightly on the keyboard (thumping it will eventually break the keys and then we may have to do without our computer for a few weeks while we wait for it to be fixed!)No food or drink by any computer equipment (If you have a problem see the computer monitor first before you ask the teacher)Please don’t download games and load it on to any of our equipment as it is illegal Please don’t change the desktop setup without the whole class approvalPlease work co-operatively and collaboratively at the computer centrePlease keep to the roles assigned to you for your session Please don’t take the mouse off the mouse operatorBook specific digital equipment by writing your name on the Whiteboard timetablesRecord tasks that you have completed on individual recording sheets Keep computer centre clear of clutter and unnecessary itemsBe self managing and organised, know what you need to do and how you are going to do it!
