3. Introduction What is a Smart Board? What sets it apart from a traditional white board? What are some ways that I can use it to help my students? Clearly we need a BIGGER block S here, too bad we don’t have a lot of room. :)
4. What is a Smart Board? Minimally defined, it is a whiteboard that is attached to a computer. Content is added to the board via touch sensors within the screen. The computer senses the pressure and reacts by telling sending a signal to display or do a particular thing. Add image of smartboard in classroom.
5. Why is a Smart Board Different? Students think its fun! Save a copy of whatever is written. Interact with other applications. Reorganize ideas without having to erase. Add image of me using Nspire emmulator
6. How can I use it? A closer look at the basics of a Smart Board. Examples of what others are doing with it. Need Jenna’s topic Need Laura’s topic What can you do that is different? ***Consider this instead (from a slide of Lisa’s we’re getting rid of) Especially helpful for Assessment Review Absent Students Struggling Learners **This slide will all be said by us as we start the tutorials.
