What else am I looking for?
Well first off let me start by saying that even if class ended this week I feel that I have truly gained so much already, and I would be completely satisfied. However, we were asked to blog about anything else we would like to learn about so I will address that question. I would love to learn more about smartboards and possibly even see one. I have heard rumors that this wonderful, magical tool exists, but I have never actually seen one. As the unicorn is to a fairytale is the smartboard to education? Alright maybe that is not as funny as I thought it was.
Anyway, I would love to actually use a smartboard, and play around with the various features it offers. It sounds like a really dynamic tool that can totally change the classroom and I am hoping that there will come a day when all classrooms are equipped with them.

Smartboards do sound so intriguing yet so elusive here in NH...I have yet to see one in action! My sister's family lives in the Minneapolis area and they sound eons ahead of NH in the technology dept. Whiteboards are commonplace out there along with the use of Moodle, Wordles,etc. She can even access her children's grades, weekly progress, homework, lunch accounts...all online!?!?!?!?
ReplyDeleteThis is an interesting topic. I have seen a smart board but have never used one. It was very cool!
ReplyDeleteAgreed. Would love to have spent a portion of a class experimenting with a Smartboard. I have been in a few NH schools that have them in some classrooms. I've also overheard teachers complain they have access to a Smartboard, but aren't confident they are using it to its potential. A brief tutorial and practice with a Smartboard would be extremely helpful.
