Sometimes, classroom management is less about talking and more about keeping things neat, tidy, and together. The next time you teach a tech lesson, save your sanity -- and your hard-earned money -- with the following tips.

Keep Your Money
Keep an eye on oft-pilfered trackballs.
When students leave the computer lab or classroom computer center, make sure they turn the mouse upside down, so you can check easily to make sure the trackball is still there.
Keep It Clean
Clean hands kill germs, not viruses.
Keep keyboards clean and cut down on germs by always having students wash their hands, or use hand sanitizer/baby wipes before using computers.
Keep It Streamlined
Be sure all unnecessary programs are closed.
Always have students check to make sure that all extraneous applications and windows are closed, and that the sound is turned down or off before starting a lesson.
