Technology Idea

I'm thinking about using the Promethean Board for my practicum project. I think the students will respond very well to the Promethean Board especially since it will be fairly new to them since the teacher does not use it very often. I will include the students in the presentation as I come up with relevant questions to check their understanding of the input I have given them. I will use the Active clickers which can be checked out to use with the Promethean Board. The students can then submit their answers onto the board as I give my lecture and I will be able to see who answered it correctly to see who needs more help with the content discussed. It will also motivate the students to listen to the input given so they can answer the questions correctly. I think this will be a good activity to use for the project.

  2. That sounds like a great idea, but I'm not quite sure what a Promethean Board is. Is it similar to a Smart Board? Because that is what we have at Larsen Elementary School.

  3. That is cool! I didn't know that they had those clickers for everyone. I think the students will like that a lot!
