SmartBoard

Personally, I get quite excited when I get to use the SmartBoard. I think that mindset is the same for a lot of students. The SmartBoard is a fun, interactive piece of technology for classroom use. I would use a SmartBoard to project notes and other aspects of the lesson that can be run from a computer and all students need to see. I think they also provide an exciting opportunity to let students interact with the lesson. SmartBoards are different from your standard marker or chalk board because it is much more advanced technology. My personal experience can attest to the wonder experienced by a child when his or her name is called up to write on the SmartBoard (regardless of age level). It is a piece of technology that I hope to have in my own classroom someday and that I intend to use regularly.
