Lessons learned from using Lino.
- As with all collaborative technology, students may feel the need to troll each other, or go off task. You need to be prepared for this and allow them to get this excitment out of their system before they begin to respect it as a useful collaborative tool.
- Students may feel the need to create their own accounts and set up their own boards. This should be encouraged however there are safety issues you should discuss with the students and the privacy settings shown below should be explained.
- Once you have finished with a canvas, you can lock it to 'show stickies to everyone' (but other people cannot post. This will prevent trolling.
- You need not list your canvas as a public canvas. Make sure you deselect this as it is selected by default (naughty Lino).
