Editor's Notes
Investing in interactive SmartBoards has had a profound effect on student learning and student achievement.
Students enjoy manipulating the SmartBoard and interacting with each other in the process.
Students learn easier, faster, and more efficiently when they are able to see and do the learning.
SmartBoards add novelty to lessons and keep students on task longer.
SmartBoards have motivated staff and students to higher degrees than ever before, and students now look forward to the rest of the lesson.
SmartBoards allow teachers to present lessons in multiple modalities that are unique and diverse to all learners.
All children, including those who possess some impairment, are able to manipulate the whiteboard to meet their needs.
SmartBoards are an effective tool to help students in reviewing basic skills and in the retention of learned material.
When students interact and learn together the learning becomes self-empowering, purposeful, and meaningful.
SmartBoards allow teachers to manage and improve their lessons with the click of a mouse.
SmartBoards give teachers digital resources to maintain dynamic interactions. Teachers respond enthusiastically when they observe positive attitudes and behaviors from students using SmartBoards.
