Smart Boards are great educational tools. Technological
enhancements have been working their ways up the educational system. Children learn
most effectively by doing. Using Smart Boards as an assessment to check for
children’s understanding by presentations, use of an interactive board as
opposed to a chalk board has really worked its way to the hearts of both
teachers and students. The activities and ways of assessing are limitless on
Smart Boards. We can now create an educational experience that is both
entertaining and enjoyable while children learn. Now if only the smart boards
at SOE worked, we could test out the different activities and uses as well as
how we could assess student learning.
Smart Boards are indeed advancing in including technology in
our learners’ education. Students can use Smart Boards to present information
in a visual, auditory, complex way as opposed to going back to the basics. The basic
presentation boards and oral reports are learning experiences and they do bring
out the creativity in children, although Technology is in the hands of learners
today. Teachers must advance as children do in order to provide the best
educational experience: to have fun Learning.
