The Smart Board...Improved Software makes it even better!

You've heard of them I'm sure...but have you actually tried a smart board with their latest software 9.5. It is incredible. "Smart" has added a search engine so that you can find gallery items easier and faster. "Smart" has done an incredible job with providing a site (http://education.smarttech.com/ste/en-US/Ed+Resource/Lesson+activities/Notebook+activities/ ) where teachers can get ideas about how to use their smart board in class and correlate these with state standards. The one drawback to the new software however is that if you are planning on downloading it from the Internet...set aside lots of time...and I mean lots! It took me almost two hours to download it and then install it.

I've heard from some teachers that the Smart Board has motivated their students where other methods had failed. How about you guys? Do you think you could use the Smart Board in your classroom? Please click on "Comments" below to add your own comment to this blog!
