If you get tired of forgetting to add the RequestContext you can use
direct_to_template[1] instead. (I almost always forget it the first
time)

It is almost exactly like render_to_response, you'd use it like this:

def index(request):
    return direct_to_template(request, 'index.html', {
        'extra_context_var': value,
        })
