4. How much time each week are your students online?
During that time my kids were online anywhere from a half hour
to an hour a day. We only have one computer that has access to the
Internet. At that particular time we had Classroom Prodigy and also
America Online. The kids were able to use Classroom Prodigy to research
their restaurants and their hotels. Classroom Prodigy has a section
called the Mobile Travel Guide online, and they were able to use
that for information. I was able to have the students work on that
in groups of two on their own. When we worked totally on America
Online, I preferred to assist them, because America Online was a
little freer environment, and I didn't want them to get lost anywhere.
When they were on America Online on the World Wide Web, I would
assist them. I would say each week they were probably on there about
five hours for the total week.
