An Interactive Whiteboard is a display screen that is connected to a computer and allows for viewing, input, and collaboration by multiple users. Excellent websites to visit to see examples and find out more information include: www.exchange.smarttech.com and www.prometheanplanet.com. IWB's are great because they promote student involvement and engagement. They also increase LoTi scores within the classroom with their excellent tools and games. I plan to use the Interactive whiteboard within my own classroom one day to promote these levels of engagement.
Within the last few years, IWB's have become increasingly popular. Schools have embraced this new and evolving form of technology. Newly improved projectors and exchange websites have made Interactive Whiteboards extremely user friendly and effective. I would even venture to say that one day IWB's will replace the regular whiteboard. Now all though their are many positive attributes to the whiteboards, their are also some negatives. With the whiteboards there is additional training needed in order to be a sufficient user of a Interactive Whiteboard. Teachers also complain that some IWBs have hard time staying aligned during lessons but are these flaws enough to keep you from this new and innovative technology?
Below is a PDF example of my IWB flipchart. Feel free to look through and see examples of this amazing product.
