# '''Exploration of the login screen. '''Ask groups: What do you need to do next? What do the parts of the netbook do? Can you give names to the parts? Give them plenty of time to discover, and press things on the netbook (with the password screen up), without telling them. They can’t really break anything if they are careful.

When a group is ready to move to the next state, the teacher demonstrates how to open a web browser (to that group). Ask the students to do the same. Again, the students find out what happens.

Again, get the groups to help each other in how to open the browser. They should immediately share anything they find out with the whole class. | # '''Exploration of the desktop.
