INSTRUCTION //(Typically lasts about 20% of session.)//

Give participants an introduction and purpose/reason why you are teaching this session: //"Many laptop users are experiencing difficulty when it comes to printing documents. This is an inconvenience to teachers and students. Today we are going to discuss the necessary steps you need to follow in order to successfully set up your computer to network enabled printers."//
 * Framing the Session**

Demonstrate for participants how to: //“Watch me as I show you how to set up a printer. First, you must identify if the printer is network enabled. To do this, I must print out a network sheet from the printer and locate the Host Name. When connecting printers to our computers we want to use the Host Name Vs. the IP address to eliminate having to re-connect printers if a problem with the internet occurs. Once the network page is printed, you need to follow the steps to set up a printer closely.// //Step 1: Print a Network sheet from the printer you wish to connect to your computer. (hyperlink to Steps Network Page)// //Step 2: Log on as Admin to the computer. The password is protected so discretion is advised when logging on.// Step 3: Follow the Steps To Set Up a Printer (hyperlinkto document) Step 4: Open Word and print a test page with the laptops users name, class and room number of the printer you just installed It is highly suggested that you keep a binder with all the test pages for your records
 * Teaching**

Guide participants through the process of: //“Now it is your turn to try it. Can someone show me how to print a network page form the printer?” (Have 3-4 students come and try this). Can someone tell me what the host name is? What do I do next now that I have the host name?”//
 * Guided Practice**


 * WORK TIME** //(Typically lasts about 60–70% of session.)//

Tell participants what they will be doing during their work time, and how much time they have: //“Take the next 30 minutes to install the printer in this room to your laptop. Once you have done this, you need to find the Host Name and follow the Steps to Set Up a Printer. If you successfully have set up one laptop, move to another one. We will come back in a half hour to share our progress.”//
 * Getting Started**

Participants will... //Step 1: Print a Network sheet from the printer you wish to connect to your computer. (hyperlink to Steps Network Page)// //Step 2: Log on as Admin to the computer. The password is protected so discretion is advised when logging on.// Step 3: Follow the Steps To Set Up a Printer (hyperlinkto document) Step 4: Open Word and print a test page with the laptops users name, class and room number of the printer you just installed Step 5: Give the test sheet to your Mouse Squad advisor.
 * Participant Activity**

Circulate around the room and confer with participants. Make sure that participants are following the steps accurately. Suggest that, if participants finish early they assist others who may be having difficulty.
 * Facilitator Conferring**

.


 * SHARE** //(Typically lasts about 10–20% of session.)//

Ask selected participants to share some issues they faced when practicing printer set-up. Discuss how they handled these issues.

 * TEMPLATE DESCRIPTION**


 * Each session contains the following components and can be conducted in 45–60 minutes:**

This is a concise summary of the session, and how it fits into the training series as a whole.
 * Session Overview**

These are the specific questions that guide the session. The purpose of the session is to address these questions.
 * Focusing Questions**

This is a list of all materials that the facilitator must make sure are present at the training site, including technology resources.
 * Materials**

All handouts can be found linked from the Resources section of the participant agenda. Participants will be able to access these materials online during the session, but the facilitator should review them ahead of time, and any instructional support charts should be posted in the room before the session begins.
 * Resources**

The facilitator explains to the participants what will be covered in this session, how it fits into the training series as a whole, and how it may be incorporated into their reflective practice.
 * Framing the Session**

This is a short period of facilitator-led instruction designed to prepare the participants for their work time. The facilitator might demonstrate a specific use of technology in an authentic curricular context, selected participants might be invited to share relevant experiences, or the group as a whole might contribute to a shared brainstorming list. The facilitator should be careful to avoid giving a lengthy lecture or straying too far from the focusing questions.
 * Teaching**

Sometimes it is helpful for the facilitator to walk the participants through a process step by step. This gives the participants the hands-on experience of work time before losing the scaffolding of facilitator-led instruction.
 * Guided Practice**

The facilitator gives instructions to the participants for their work time, and lets them know what they will be expected to share at the end of the session.
 * Getting Started**

Participants are given time to practice the specific process they have seen demonstrated. They may be working independently, with a partner, or in small groups.
 * Participant Activity**

As participants work, the facilitator moves around the room holding short conferences to help guide the work and make it more productive. The facilitator should be at eye level with participants during each conference. These conversations need not be especially private; the facilitator may invite someone sitting nearby to listen in. If common needs among the group emerge, they can either be addressed immediately or during the sharing time.
 * Facilitator Conferring**

Participants gather at the end of the session to demonstrate what they have done, discuss experiences they have had, and reflect on what they have learned. This is an opportunity to return to the focusing questions that began the session, and discuss what has been accomplished in the interval.
