Look Familiar?Betcher, Chris. US Election Report on an IWB.http://vimeo.com/3246762

It is not what happens on the board that matters, it is what happens because of what happens on the board Chris BetcherAnticipation GuideIWBs are nothing but glorified overhead projectors or flipcharts and are a waste of money.

IWBs support differentiated instruction because they accommodate different learning styles.

My IWB takes up space on my classroom wall and collects dust, but I suppose I could use it as a bulletin board.

It would be a sad day for both my students and I if our IWB was removed from our classroom.

If you dusted my IWB for fingerprints you would find mostly be teacher fingerprints.

IWBs just perpetuate the stand-and-deliver model of teaching.

My students interact with the IWB more than I do, in fact they often teach me a thing or two.

I use my IWB as a center where students lead their own interaction with content.

I have received adequate PL on the best pedagogical use of an IWB. Food for ThoughtHow can GOOD TEACHING be enhanced by an IWB?Peter Kent

http://lwict-principles.wikispaces.com/Constructivist+LearningPhilosophies of learning and teaching can be viewed as a continuum with extreme educational interpretations of behaviorism (for example, instruction) and cognitivism (for example, construction) at either end. Any one educator's philosophy resides somewhere on this line. The threshold between the two views marks a critical point of "transformation" for an educator. Teaching with Technology. Hooper, Simon and Lloyd P. Rieberhttp://www.nowhereroad.com/twt/New Bloom

Revised edition by Lorin Anderson (a student of Bloom)Blooms Taxonomy of Learning Domains; The Three Types of Learning.http://www.nwlink.com/~donclark/hrd/bloom.htmlLwICT Model of Technology Adoption

A supplementary relationship separates ICT and curriculum in space, time, and personnel - separate computer labs, computer classes, and computer teachers. A complementary relationship begins to connect ICT with curriculum in various ways. An integrated relationship allows the classroom teacher to bring ICT into the classroom so it is available at teachable moments. An infused relationship allows the transparent application of ICT, wherever and whenever appropriate, to enhance critical and creative thinking.LwICT Handbook, p. 10.Gradual Release http://lwict-assessment.wikispaces.com/Gradual+Release I do I do / We do You practise You do

Chris Betcher. The IWB RevolutionDiscussionhttp://vimeo.com/3246762

What are the essential features of interactivity that characterize the use of IWBs and thus make them more effective than current presentation media (computer with data projector, OHP, etc.)?

Can simple activities of the type drag & drop be considered interactive?
