SmartBoards

WoW! This is the first time i have ever witnessed the capabilities of a "Smartboard"(also known as interactive white boards). A former student Ellyse Haase was the presenter. She has experience with these smartboards because of her internship which incorporated it into the classroom. It was fascinating to see the possibilities and interactive ways you can technically involve the students into lesson plans. For example, when we went through a lesson plan of Ellyse's we were being the students and having the opportunity to fill the blanks and answer the questions at the front of the class using our fingers as the "pen". I hope that I learn how to use this interactive innovation very soon and can easily incorporate it into my lesson plans as I go through the 3 years i have left of education.
