T/TH SmartBoard Madness

1) actually touching it!

2) using it for things other than PPT and worksheets

3) i want to see the tablets (JohnBishopwilltrytogetjustone)

4) differences b/w the two boards (SmartBoard, Promethean, Hitachi, Interwrite)

5) what if schools don't have the funds to "interact" with them using the tools that cost money (besides touching the screen)

6) prometheanlearning.com

7) not enough training

8) children can actually write on it. mentor teacher used all the "modalities" (visual, auditory, tactile, textual)--i.e., Jeanna's Beach example

9) using webcams to make exchanges between diff schools

10) how could we record something for the sub

11) writing a grant that would allow you to own a board at home
