Be positive about using technology with your students!
There is no "Beach Ball of Death". It is the "Spinning Wheel of Fortune". In other words, don't decide you're a magnet for technology trouble and there's no help for you. When you understand your computer better, you can manage issues and use technology successfully. Have an "I can" attitude. Teachers should model technology use every day!
