Still Low-tech!

As of Wednesday night, I still don't have a Smartboard installed. Guys came into my room (while I was teaching) and began remounting my Smartboard. I have no laptop yet and they can't seem to figure out how to mount the Smartboard properly. I'm listening to the Smartboard podcast with Joan Badger and Ben Hazzard and they're great. Lots of information and tips. However, until I can start playing with my Smartboard I can't really apply their "tricks of the trade." One of the top 5 misuses of… Continue

Smartboard Newbie

Today my Smartboard was installed, or more accurately, it was mounted on my wall. It is not hooked up and is little more than a whiteboard at the moment. However, this is progress! My next step is to get my tech dept to hook it up and install all the software. Tomorrow is another day and another day closer to using my Smartboard, I hope.

Notebook Flash card

I know it's late and I am tired which might be contributing to the fact that I can't seem to figure out how to get the Notebook interactive flash card to work. More specifically I can't figure out how to input the answers-- it's just not working! Any help would be appreciated-- I'm sure it's an easy solution that I'm missing? Thanks in advance!

Brain Rules and the Smartboard Lesson Podcast

I've recently listened to episode 144 of the SMARTboard lesson podcast where Joan and Ben shared the book Brain Rules, by John Medina, and how it translated to the SMARTboard. It was a great podcast, as usual. But the way they talked about the rules and implications for education compelled me to get the book. I downloaded it from audible.com on Saturday and have listened… Continue
