What began as an email to staff at my school has become something that I look forward to each week.  I love to investigate new resources for those that teach and for those not necessarily in a classroom.  I hope that you can find things here that you can use!

Just a reminder…

 

Students are using the Multiple Desktop feature to hide tasks (Email, Minecraft, YouTube, etc.) during classes.

 

                                                 

 

They are switching between desktops using a simple keystroke (Ctrl + Windows Key + {left or right arrow}).

 

                                     

 

As you are moving around the classroom, if you know what to look for, you can see them making this keystroke.  At that point, you can simply tap the “Task View” icon in the bottom left corner (image below), to see how many desktops are open and have them close the non-essential desktops.
