How INSTRUCTOR will FACILITATE student learning:

Introduction - Anticipatory Set (30 minutes)

Statement of objective (from above) - (By The End Of Lesson Students Will Be Able To)

Instructor shows working floppy drive installation.

Instructor informs of different floppy drive types.

Tie in the importance of using step by step installation process.

Instruction - Key Concepts (30 minutes)

Floppy drive types (3.5 and 5.25)

Demonstrate each step on the handout (see attached handout).

Checking for Understanding and Clarification (15 minutes)

Ask students to identify what the size differences are, and their use.

Ask individual students questions about particular steps.

How the students will be EVALUATED:

The student will demonstrate in a lab setting proper installation of the two types of floppy drives. The student will identify which drive goes into what bay accordingly. The student will identify the cable that is used and install it correctly. The student will configure the cable correctly so the drive letters are correct. The student will have a working floppy drive when the computer is turned on.

STEP 1: Get out the tools you'll need - Phillips screwdriver.	STEP 2: Ground yourself - static electricity can kill your computer.
STEP 3: Open your computer case - don't lose the screws or your placement.	STEP 4: Let give it a home - find the correct bay to put in your drive, we will be installing a 3.5" drive so choose the small one.
STEP 5: Once the drive is in place, get some screws and make sure its nice and tightened in place.	STEP 6: Get your floppy cable, make sure the end with the "twist" goes to the drive. The red line is pin1.
STEP 7: The other end should not be fishing, connect it to the motherboard floppy connector - red line is pin1.	STEP 8: Drive is useless without power, the small power connector is for floppies.
STEP 9: Turn on the computer, get into the BIOS and configure it according to the size you put in.	STEP 10: Close your computer case - make sure everything goes back.
