Use class room software which can be shared
freely.
I would like to recommend that you
consider recommending software to schools which
can be freely shared with the students. As any
teacher knows, students will retain learning best
when they can practice it themselves. This is the
rational behind homework.
If a student
learns to use a software program in school and
then can take it home and work on it there, the
experience is greatly enhanced since the homework
will reinforce the knowledge gained in the class
room. In addition, if the student has the software
at home, he/she is likely to try to use the
software in way not anticipated by the instructor.
This type of informal learning both reinforces the
classroom work and leads to greater facility with
the
computer.
