Innovative educators know that it's easier to engage students when we're willing to get out of our comfort zone. If you've ever gone to a young person for help with your smartphone or tablet (C'mon, just admit it!), you know how excited they can get about technology. You also know that, in most cases, their over-your-head, rapid-fire explanation showcases impressive knowledge and advanced skills that are mostly self-taught.
Get More From Your Class
Forward-thinking educators are tapping into this valuable insight and are giving kids access to innovative learning tools that engage their love of technology. Interactive whiteboards are one such tool. Check out our list of exciting advantages.
1. Got BYOD?
Smartphones in class are a fact of life in the 21st century; many educational institutions are taking advantage of their good fortune by using them to access new learning opportunities. Your interactive whiteboards can allow students to sync their smartphones and tablets with your presentation. How cool is that?
2. There's an App for That
By integrating dynamic apps with interactive whiteboards, you can take advantage of cutting-edge technology and new research to engage students in a way they'll understand and enjoy.
3. Yes, You Can Try It
Isn't it great when we can say yes to students? Interactive whiteboards engage students on a tactile level, allowing them to use both the touch screen and a digital pen for real-time participation with real-time results.
4. Engage More Students
With multi-touch capabilities, interactive whiteboards can engage several students at once. This increased ability for collaboration and social interaction can bring even the most reticent students back into the conversation.
5. Save it for Later
Interactive whiteboards allow educators to save lessons to the cloud. This ability to access lessons for review, continuation, and sharing with distance learners is invaluable.
