IWBs…Not Your Mother’s Chalkboard
Joquetta Johnson
If you believe...
“The IWBs are simply
glorified chalkboards!”
then you must also
believe that computers are nothing but glorified typewriters.

No matter what tool we are discussing,
the tools can only do so much. The
teachers need time to explore how best to use it. It is only in
that way that teaching pedagogy can be improved.http://www.speedofcreativity.org/2008/08/01/smart-technologies-whiteboard-software-new-requires-product-keys-for-installation/
Working on a whiteboard is
like conducting a symphony.
You're bringing in drag-and-drop collaborative writing and
problem solving activities,
then cueing up a film clip or
bringing in the Internet to do
research. There are many
seemingly disparate functions
and features, that when used
together, create a holistic
lesson.

It's important to avoid thinking
of a whiteboar
d as a glorified
chalkboard…There
is so much you can do with
whiteboard
technology, it is
essential that you
allow yourself to fall in love with teaching
in a whole new way.
One upside of the whiteboard is the ability to personalize lessons with different learning
styles in mind. “I am reaching every
learner with this technology…”http://www2.scholastic.com/browse/article.jsp?id=10621
We unplug our students, believing that laptops, iPods,
cell phones, and even whiteboards have no
real place in teaching the three
Rs. As a result, students
fail to see the relevance of their education as they judge the delivery
and not the content.
