WELCOME

This is my first attempt at blogging and it scares me to death. I am really not the type of person to just "put it all out there", but for the sake of education here I go!

I have found a very interesting article tweeted on Twitter (@ShellTerrel) that answers some of the questions that I have been pondering in relation to interactive whiteboards. In teaching with the interactive whiteboard, I too feel that sometimes the 'interactive' part is lost and it becomes a great video projector for teacher directed learning. I believe with time and skill development in the tool the interactive whiteboard can be more 'interactive' however to make a presentation to get to that point can be long and tedious. It is not the tool it is how we use it that makes it beneficial for the students.

Continuing learning with tools mentioned from above. Voicethread experience will come intime. Still sorting everything out!
