One thing we’ve been mulling over is how best to integrate the use of the Smart Board into our “new” way of teaching math.
Quite aside from the fact that neither Dale nor I use an Interactive Whiteboard (IWB) with any regularity in any subjects, there is the whole issue about an IWB in math, in use in a Bansho. Bansho, Japanese board writing, tracks the progress of a lesson visually on the board. It provides a visual references and record for students and teacher to refer to as they work through a mathematical challenge. How can we do such a thing on a 7 inch IR?
I am hopeful that this LNS monograph about technology in the mathematics classroom, kindly forwarded to me by a colleague I chatted up about the project recently at a retirement, can shed some light on that. Stay tuned….
