Interactive Whiteboards


Interactive Whiteboards!!! The chalk boards and white erase boards have progressed even further.  Interactive whiteboards can be used in any grade level for teaching.  It is a large interactive display that connects to a computer and projector.  The projector then projects the computers desktop onto the whiteboards surface where teachers and even students can control the computer by a pen, finger, or other gadgets.  The interactive whiteboard is a very effective instructional strategy for teachers and students.  It allows teachers to record and save their lessons, post material again if a student missed some information, shows maps, graphs, and charts easily, and instantly forms ideas and presentations. Interactive boards not only help the teachers with student learning, but also provide new ways to teach lessons. For more information and ideas you can check the following link below.
