This list will help you make sure you have key elements ready to go before class even starts.

- Clean: Follow posted signage about cleaning the classroom. If your classroom includes cleaning spray, do not spray liquid directly onto the touchscreen control panel, spray onto cleaning cloth instead.
- Log on to the classroom computer OR hook up your laptop, and log into it (laptop connection instructions here)
- TurnOFF the Wifi connection on your laptop - the classroom USB cable connection gives you a wired network connection which is more stable than a Wifi connection. You can turn your wifi back on again after your class.
- Turn ON the projector or wall display, if sharing visual content (instructions below)
