[nobe-l] Interview Lessons

[Brian]

        Hi,
Great news, and best wishes on the second interview!
Just a few thoughts/questions:
Do you have a personal laptop that you can bring and plug into a projector, 
if there is one already in the room?
Can you go a day ahead of time to check out the classroom space to get 
familiar with it?

As an aside, when I taught my five-minute lesson for my Teach for America 
interview, we had no access to technology, just a white board. Rather than 
writing the requested information on the board, I typed it up nicely, added 
some  pizzazz in the form of related graphics, and gave it as a hand-out. 
Granted, the lesson was to adults, and it was only a five-minute  lesson, 
but there are almost always suitable adaptations that can be made to 
lessons.
Let us know how it goes!
Brian
