“Our computer lab is setup where all the computers are around
the walls so they're not facing a teacher. So, we ended up
moving it to my classroom and I just projected it onto the wall
so that I could actually see them all. Otherwise, they were
doing whatever they wanted to, whenever they wanted to, and
we didn't have much control over it. We have the projector on
the ceiling that projects our laptop onto the whiteboard. So, I
had a little bit more control in [the classroom]."
