For some lessons access to the internet is essential/works best for that lesson’s objectives and teaching point and may require that you book your department/faculty/centre’s computer room. I always offer alternative ways of completing the work in the lesson or provide samples/examples on the Slide Resource if this is not possible. In such cases I suggest that the internet access tasks are set as home learning.
Some lessons also lend themselves to being divided into more than one session. Where this is possible/desirable is indicated in this Teacher Guide. You will, of course, have a much greater understanding of the needs, capacities, pace of your students and make these decisions where you feel most appropriate to their needs.
