The original version used chalk but vertical surfaces for Instructor to write notes, draw pictures or help students see what is discussed are in every classroom around the world. I am tapping in to all the potential of whiteboard use but there is more for me to discover. I know not to stand in front of
what I am writing or drawing on the whiteboard. A classroom I have used even has a smartboard. so here is the next version of the writing surface brought to us by technology is here. Non-projected media controlling projected media for the good of all. I even learned how to draw a basketball and hoop. Then throw the ball across the smartboard into the basket. Always gets a cheer from students. I feel that this form of classroom tool may become more advanced but will be at the front of the classroom for I while longer. I heard that flipped classroom design may have whiteboards on all walls that students and Instructor use together.
Please take a moment (4mins.) to listen to my thoughts on the value of whiteboard in the classroom.
One of my Blogging cohorts has a great page on classroom
ideas:
My favorite idea is having all students use a small whiteboard in class. She offers several exercises.
