Not sure if i ever mentioned to you that my english classroom has a smartboard (you can google it if you are not sure what it is) anyways... it is super cool and has some awesome functions. All of last semester i pretty much used it as a regular projector and the only thing was that i used the electronic pens to write directly on the powerpoints to point stuff out and things like that. But I never used any of the functions, as i had no idea how to.
well, yesterday the technicians came over because the pens had not been working since the beginning of the semester (turns out the program for them was not on my computer anymore- not sure how that one happened) so they came over to fix that and then they also showed me how some of the appications work. It is SO cool! you can do all sorts of awesome stuff with it. I just gotta practice and play it it now and see in which cool ways i can incoorporate it into my class. I think it would be cool if i can find creative ways to use it in class because it would help keep the student't attention (since they too think it is the coolest thing ever!)
