=Lab Use Guidelines (March 2009)=

Hi everyone, We’re noticing a heavy lab usage for certain blocks, especially C block (D & A blocks are other potentially heavy use blocks). Here’s a “brief” reminder (for new staff in particular) that can help us with using the lab 104 effectively:
 * Please send a runner to check if lab has been booked before sending down students, or talk to the booking teacher to negotiate shared use
 * Please be considerate of your lab bookings (i.e./ book then no-show, or multiple bookings that can be condensed). It helps if you jot down how many students will be coming down, or if it's a TOC booking (for additional tech support).
 * Gr’s 7-10 classes must be supervised at all times. High needs students should be with an EA or under classroom teacher supervision.
 * We have 7 computer stations (2 additional ones are designated for L4U system only) in the library for overflow (please book)/ and 4 in the Learning Assistance room (check with Shellie first)
 * There are computers in many of the classrooms (4 stations in rm 306 available during C blk). Check with classroom teaches first.
 * Partner up on computer stations, if it works with your lesson, when there is more than one class sharing the lab.
 * If lab is booked, can your lesson be delivered via LCD projector in your room instead?
 * Please only book half a block at a time * (some classes do have two sections)
 * Lab 106 is fully used in all blocks for scheduled classes.
