Sue Sneyd will present
Interactive White Boards - Their Impact in a Classroom
This presentation will examine the effect of introducing an Interactive White Board (IWB) into the classroom. Sue Sneyd’s recent research to complete a Masters qualification focused on the processes teachers go through to integrate this technology into their classroom programs, looking at activity ideas and successful strategies.
Working in a primary school which has almost achieved the goal of having an IWB in every room allowed Sue to observe and research the effect that this technology has had on teachers from Pre Primary to Year 7.
The presentation will include lesson examples, activity ideas and student and teacher feedback on the impact that IWBs have had on learning opportunities across the curriculum.
Intended Audience: Primary, Middle School
