A student comes to her high-school language arts class and announces that she would rather read books and write long-hand than use a computer. To encourage her to develop the technological literacy required for the class and in society in general, the best strategy for the teacher is to:
a. assign some tasks that can only be completed with a computer, but offer alternative assignments for her.
b. ensure that all classroom activities and lessons can be completed either with computers or with printed (nondigital) sources and pen-and-paper.
c. put students into groups when an activity requires a computer and allow them to select which group members must use the computer.
d. require computer use but scaffold the student's efforts to use technology in increasingly complex ways.
Question 2
When teaching problem-solving procedures in math class, teachers should make sure to:

b. provide enough opportunities for rote practice that students automatize the algorithms.
c. help students make sense of the procedures so that students can transfer them to appropriate contexts.
d. offer specific instruction in fractions and proportions to ensure that all students have mastered this basic understanding.
