I find they are useful to intersperse with legato or staccato technical work. The underlying air support has to be the same no matter what you're playing. For example, practice a long tone on low and high C for 8 beats, and then play a C major scale in the same tempo in sixteenth notes but make sure to channel the same air support that you are developing in the long tone into the scale. Then play it stacattissimo but keep the same air support in the scale, it's just the tongue that's interrupting the vibration of the reed, not the airstream that's getting interrupted.
