This guide offers planning and organizing ideas for effectively using computers in classrooms that include students both with and without disabilities. The guide addresses: developing lesson plans, introducing the lesson in a way that builds motivation, providing guided and independent practice, extending the learning, and choosing software. Variations in computer availability and use are examined. A sample lesson plan on the U.S. Civil War illustrates use of "TimeLiner" software in a social studies class. The guide concludes with a list of 7 references, 5 print resources, and 13 software programs. (JDD)
