Week 2 · Instructor notes
Slide 1
Opening video · Week 2
Allow 8 minutes for this 7:35 video. Press Play; it never starts automatically. Captions are on by default. Pause for a question when useful, then resume. Use the transcript link for chapter replay in a separate tab. Leaving this slide pauses playback. With the video focused, its native controls own the keyboard; Tab to Continue to lesson for deck navigation.
Slide 2
Find it. Check it. Keep it.
Welcome learners by name. This lesson uses fictional examples and existing tools. Open the worksheet before demonstrations. F toggles fullscreen; N shows notes. Arrow keys progress through shows before advancing slides.
Slide 3
Start with what you know.
3 minutes including the welcome, after the 8-minute opening video. Invite a real example without asking for private account or benefits details. Connect existing experience to today’s task.
Slide 4
Your four missions.
2 minutes. Preview the task sequence and success evidence. Use prepared examples if software or accounts are unavailable. Each mission has extra rounds; the last mission is a capstone. Rounds marked Done early are extras for fast finishers.
Slide 5
Ask well, then check it
Mission 2A. App: Browser · Google. Explain why this helps: A checked answer and a source trail. Connect to the learner’s own household or community task. Ask for a prediction before the show. Full procedural steps and expected evidence are in the worksheet and answer guide.
Slide 6
Watch: ask well, then check it
App: Browser · Google. Advance each state deliberately. Read the visible result aloud, then ask why it matters. No automatic advance. Select Next step or use the deck arrow; Replay starts again. This original diagram is a teaching model; the practice library holds the detailed interactive computer simulations.
Slide 7
Your turn: Mission 2A
App: Browser · Google. Worksheet 2A. Let learners act at their seats. Offer the quick card first, then a prompt, then a demonstration. This mission is done in the real app, so it has no practice page. Paper fallback: narrate actions and annotate the model; record that it was simulated. Do not count a paper prediction as an observed software skill.
Slide 8
Round 2: Rescue the weak question
App: Browser · Google. Learners rewrite, then ask the best version on their own screen. Look for a service, a place and one detail (free, evening, near a bus line). A good rewrite sounds like a question to a person. Ask two or three learners to read theirs aloud. Worksheet section 2A-r2 (open worksheet.html#m2A-r2). If the room is slow, skip the Done early lines first, then the last round.
Slide 9
Round 3: Catch the error
App: Worksheet · fictional answer and page. Everything here is fictional. The AI answer is wrong on the town (Beckley, Ohio), the hours (9 p.m. against 8 p.m.), and "free for everyone" is not on the page. Use it to show why the summary is a lead. Ask who they would trust and why. Worksheet section 2A-r3 (open worksheet.html#m2A-r3). If the room is slow, skip the Done early lines first, then the last round.
Slide 10
Round 4: Safe to ask?
App: Worksheet · six sample questions. Private details typed into a question may be stored by the company that runs the tool. Fine: place names, service types, general questions. Keep out: Social Security, bank or card numbers, passwords, claim numbers, health details. A password reset question never needs the password. No veteran or benefits framing is required: use it only if it is the natural example. Worksheet section 2A-r4 (open worksheet.html#m2A-r4). If the room is slow, skip the Done early lines first, then the last round.
Slide 11
The AI answer says the library is open until 9 p.m. Its own page says until 8 p.m. What next?
Ask everyone to choose before selecting an answer. Correct answer: Trust the library page and phone to confirm. The library's own page outranks a summary. Hours change, so phone before you go. Check the actual Point B evidence, not simply completion of a click. Misconception to address: the other options may look convenient but do not accomplish the stated task.
Slide 12
Complete a form carefully
Mission 2B. App: Practice form. Explain why this helps: A clear practice confirmation. Connect to the learner’s own household or community task. Ask for a prediction before the show. Full procedural steps and expected evidence are in the worksheet and answer guide.
Slide 13
Watch: complete a form carefully
App: Practice form. Advance each state deliberately. Read the visible result aloud, then ask why it matters. No automatic advance. Select Next step or use the deck arrow; Replay starts again. This original diagram is a teaching model; the practice library holds the detailed interactive computer simulations.
Slide 14
Your turn: Mission 2B
App: Practice form. Worksheet 2B; Mission 2B practice page. Let learners act at their seats. Offer the quick card first, then a prompt, then a demonstration. Account-free route: the Mission 2B practice page is a simulation; learners write the predicted and observed result. Paper fallback: narrate actions and annotate the model; record that it was simulated. Do not count a paper prediction as an observed software skill.
Slide 15
Round 2: Needed, not needed, risky
App: Worksheet · fictional request form. There is no single right answer for every form, but a request for computer help does not need a Social Security number, bank account or mother's maiden name. Date of birth is "ask why first". Praise a learner who says they would phone the organization instead of typing it. Worksheet section 2B-r2 (open worksheet.html#m2B-r2). If the room is slow, skip the Done early lines first, then the last round.
Slide 16
Round 3: Read before you send
App: Worksheet · fictional privacy note. The note is fictional. Teach the habit: before typing, find who is asking, why, how long they keep it and who sees it. A form that asks for a card number to get a free class is a warning sign, not a service. No sign that a form looks official proves it is safe. Worksheet section 2B-r3 (open worksheet.html#m2B-r3). If the room is slow, skip the Done early lines first, then the last round.
Slide 17
The practice page says “No request was sent.” What happened?
Ask everyone to choose before selecting an answer. Correct answer: Only the practice is complete. This is an account-free simulation. It practices validation and reading a confirmation, not delivery. Check the actual Point B evidence, not simply completion of a click. Misconception to address: the other options may look convenient but do not accomplish the stated task.
Slide 18
Organize and recover a file
Mission 2C. App: File Explorer. Explain why this helps: A named file you can reopen. Connect to the learner’s own household or community task. Ask for a prediction before the show. Full procedural steps and expected evidence are in the worksheet and answer guide.
Slide 19
Watch: organize and recover a file
App: File Explorer. Advance each state deliberately. Read the visible result aloud, then ask why it matters. No automatic advance. Select Next step or use the deck arrow; Replay starts again. This original diagram is a teaching model; the practice library holds the detailed interactive computer simulations.
Slide 20
Your turn: Mission 2C
App: File Explorer. Worksheet 2C; Mission 2C practice page. Let learners act at their seats. Offer the quick card first, then a prompt, then a demonstration. Account-free route: the Mission 2C practice page is a simulation; learners write the predicted and observed result. Paper fallback: narrate actions and annotate the model; record that it was simulated. Do not count a paper prediction as an observed software skill.
Slide 21
Round 2: Rename the mess
App: Worksheet · ten messy file names. The names are on paper so the room needs no extra files. Good names say what it is and which version: library-hours-screenshot-oct.png. Folders: Community resources, Household, Photos. Any clear scheme works if a stranger could find the file. Worksheet section 2C-r2 (open worksheet.html#m2C-r2). If the room is slow, skip the Done early lines first, then the last round.
Slide 22
Round 3: Find it fast
App: File Explorer · Documents. File Explorer shows a search box at the top right. The Date modified heading appears in Details view. Pin to Quick access lives in the right-click menu (Show more options may be needed). If the lab image differs, demonstrate on the projector first. Worksheet section 2C-r3 (open worksheet.html#m2C-r3). If the room is slow, skip the Done early lines first, then the last round.
Slide 23
Round 4: Which tool fixes it?
App: Worksheet · four problems. Match the problem to the tool. A ZIP packages files; it is not a backup and not encryption. Version history needs a cloud service. A backup is a separate copy kept somewhere else. Worksheet section 2C-r4 (open worksheet.html#m2C-r4). If the room is slow, skip the Done early lines first, then the last round.
Slide 24
The file exists, but a paragraph was replaced. Where first?
Ask everyone to choose before selecting an answer. Correct answer: Version history, if available. Recycle Bin recovers deleted files. Version history can recover earlier content of a cloud file. Check the actual Point B evidence, not simply completion of a click. Misconception to address: the other options may look convenient but do not accomplish the stated task.
Slide 25
Share only the access needed
Mission 2D. App: Shared file. Explain why this helps: Reader, reviewer and coauthor roles. Connect to the learner’s own household or community task. Ask for a prediction before the show. Full procedural steps and expected evidence are in the worksheet and answer guide.
Slide 26
Watch: share only the access needed
App: Shared file. Advance each state deliberately. Read the visible result aloud, then ask why it matters. No automatic advance. Select Next step or use the deck arrow; Replay starts again. This original diagram is a teaching model; the practice library holds the detailed interactive computer simulations.
Slide 27
Your turn: Mission 2D
App: Shared file. Worksheet 2D; Mission 2D practice page. Let learners act at their seats. Offer the quick card first, then a prompt, then a demonstration. Account-free route: the Mission 2D practice page is a simulation; learners write the predicted and observed result. Paper fallback: narrate actions and annotate the model; record that it was simulated. Do not count a paper prediction as an observed software skill.
Slide 28
Round 2: Role cards
App: Worksheet · six sharing situations. The aim is least access that does the job. Anyone with the link means anyone who gets the link, including after it is forwarded. Choose named people when the file matters. A stranger asking for edit access is a no. Worksheet section 2D-r2 (open worksheet.html#m2D-r2). If the room is slow, skip the Done early lines first, then the last round.
Slide 29
Round 3: Delete it. Then what?
App: Worksheet · three situations. Sync copies a deletion to every connected place. A backup is a separate copy. Version history may bring back earlier wording, for a limited time and only in some services. Online recycle bins keep deleted files for a limited time. Do not test with a real important file. Worksheet section 2D-r3 (open worksheet.html#m2D-r3). If the room is slow, skip the Done early lines first, then the last round.
Slide 30
A neighbor only needs to read the handout. Which access?
Ask everyone to choose before selecting an answer. Correct answer: Viewer. Viewer meets the task with less ability to change the shared copy. It does not encrypt it. Check the actual Point B evidence, not simply completion of a click. Misconception to address: the other options may look convenient but do not accomplish the stated task.
Slide 31
Capstone: Community resource folder
Capstone. Learners choose a new service so they transfer the skills instead of repeating the demo. They need a question, a checked source, the five-field note, a clearly named file in Community resources, and a ZIP. No new account. Use fictional personal details if any are needed.
Slide 32
Build your folder
Learners work at their own seats. Offer the quick card first, then a prompt, then a demonstration. Account-free: every step uses Edge, File Explorer and Word. Skip Done early if the room is slow.
Slide 33
Can your partner follow your trail?
Partners swap the note only. If the partner cannot find the page and the detail from the note, the note is missing something: title, organization, full URL, date checked or the detail. Fix it together. Record how each pair did on the roster as Independent, With prompt or Needs practice.
Slide 34
Show the evidence.
Ask each learner for observable evidence using the answer guide. Record independent, prompted or simulated work accurately. Optional extensions wait if core evidence is unfinished. Week 6 uses its separate 8-point extension rubric, not the IC3 test score.
Slide 35
Take one useful thing home.
Invite one specific transfer task, such as finding a service, saving a handout or checking a suspicious message. Do not require anyone to reveal personal information. Videos are optional replay resources; no additional viewing time is silently added to the 120-minute lesson.
Slide 36
Mission complete.
Collect evidence, not just self-reported confidence. Celebrate a concrete improvement. Close applications and restore shared settings. Keep support needs separate from assessment results.
