We had computers and the typing software made a beep with the PC speaker each time you made a mistake. The beeping summoned the evil teacher to torture you even more, e g. by covering hands and keyboard with a box.

    Later in high school when we got computers, someone discovered that if you shuffle your feet on the carpet to build up static then touched the lock (remember when computers came with a set of keys?!) the computer would reset.

    "It's not my fault Miss, the computer has reset! Can you help?". (This particular teacher was young, attractive, and sometimes didn't wear a bra).
