We have not directly covered this topic yet, however I feel the scenarios we submitted will come in handy with this question.
What is the most common form of misbehavior in the classroom and what mehtods can we use to not let it dominate in our classroom?

We have not discussed the 3 most important components of classroom management yet.

Which strategies are most effective for maintaining order in the classroom?
I'm not sure if we have hit this question yet. It may have been covered in Fires, but we never really discussed it.
How can we establish one effective way in which students will always respond to if off task.

Which strategies are most effective for teaching and learning with technology?
Strategies that involve hands-on activities in which the student is in control and doing something fun and engaging have seem to be the most effective strategies for learning when it comes to technology. That is simply a given understanding since it differentiates from the typical paper & pencil work.
How can the students who do not appeal to the use of technology be involved completely?

How can you effectively integrate technology into your teaching and learning?
Our group presentations also hit this question greatly, mainly the fact that we had to research and find a lesson that already uses the presented technology. I also think that our work with webquests so far has covered this question as well.
Digital stories (i think that's what they called) are something I'd like to see addressed if at all possible.

Why might it be important for students to learn with technology?
I think our group technology presentations helped answer this question because each different technology represented demonstrated how technology can be used in an effective and differentiated classroom. Altogether, each realm of technology that was covered made us realize that there are different ways to incorporate technology for it to appeal to everyone, and it will always be a hands-on and more engaged approach.
How can students who do not have computers at home and are not very technology-savey keep up with those who are very knowledgable, especially when it comes to an assignment.

How to help someone use a computer
From the first list, one thing that I recognized was the "textual message that users don't often read." That caught my eye because it's very true. When an error message or some other text appears on the screen that really should be read before proceeding, users often do not read it but instead quickly click to keep going with whatever they were doing.
From the second list, I liked the "be abstract with language...saying things in ways they will understand." I think that is very important with teaching people to use technology because if they have entirely no clue how to do something, you need to be direct and in depth with them so they will know how to complete the task you are asking them to complete.
I can use this information by taking my time to be concise and in depth when explaining to everyone how to use Google Earth during my team presentation.
