<p>Your role is to <em>support</em> the learners and help create a good learning environment.</p>

you are in danger!  They should do their own typing, and drive their
own machines.</li>
<li>Help learners break down tasks into repeatable, understandable parts.</li>
<li>Look for opportunities to empower the learners.</li>
<li>Learners should be talking more than you are.</li>
<li>Make room for the voices of all learners.  Make space for quieter people
to speak.</li>
