About Me:: I grew up in Swaziland, Southern Africa. I attended college in the USA and taught 5th and 8th grade for five years. Now I am an Instructional Technology Resource teacher and help teachers learn how to integrate technology into the classroom. My main love is the Smartboard which I troubleshoot and instruct with. I am always looking to see what new concepts teachers come up with on how to use the Smartboard Notebook software.

Your aggregation of the SMART Board resources is appreciated by many educators. I have you bookmarked on my delicious :)

Thanks! Laurie

My name is Greg Mentzer and I just signed up for SMART Board Revolution. We are hosting a SMART Board Users Conference at the Tatnall School in Wilmington, Delaware on Saturday, March 7, 2009.

At the moment we are calling for presenters and developing the program. If you think you or other teachers that you know might be interested in presenting at the Users Conference please contact me at mentzer@tatnall.org or here at SMART Board Revolution.

At 10:16pm on October 12, 2008, Raenette Taljaard said…: Yes, initially I had some problems with the Mac and Notebook, but I've swapped from the eBook to having my Smartboard connected to a MacBook, and the problems are dwindling. We played the Free Rice game today on the SMARTboard, and the kids love it!

Initially I was given the Airliner a few years ago to appease me, because being a Special Ed teacher I wasn't supposed to get a Smartboard. However I was the first teacher in my school to learn about IWB & tried to drum up interest. Finally got a Smartboard last year and now have to play catchup to teachers who've had theirs for several years! I look forward to learning about Senteo from your experiences.
