Chapter 6: Best Practices
The instructor should:
 Make this chapter as hands-on as possible.
 Encourage students to do the chapter activities, labs, and use the
Syntax Checker.
 Use the lab researching Broadband Internet Access Technologies as
a group activity assigning a technology to a group and have students
present their findings.
 Video outlining Teleworking advantages:
