SMART BOARD
Your principal had called a special meeting afterschool to announce that the school would be adding SMART Boards to the classrooms. Fellow teachers immediately begin to whisper to each other. Comments range from, 'So that's why we aren't getting raises next year, they are investing in machines instead of teachers!' to 'This is fantastic! This new technology will solve all my teaching problems!'
Neither of these comments is accurate. Simply updating technology in a classroom does not solve everything; you still need to be a good teacher. However, technology can be used to enhance a teacher's lesson if it is used properly. The first step to using technology properly is to understand what it is and what it can do for your classroom.
A SMART Board is one brand of interactive white board.
Older versions of the SMART Board only worked with one point of contact on the board, so multiple people could not be touching the board at the same time. The upgraded SMART Board 800 and newer models are equipped with multi-touch technology, which allow up to four students to collaborate using the board by responding to multiple touches at the same time. This means two students could be solving a math problem at the same time on the board or label a diagram together easily.
Add-On Features of a SMART Board
Besides just the board itself, there are many add-ons available. A wireless keyboard and mouse can be used with it, but a write-on tablet can be purchased that allows you to interact with the tablet and have everything appear on the projected screen in front of you. Both the wireless mouse and the write-on tablet are great tools because they allow the teacher to circulate the room, which is essential for good classroom management, while still interacting with the screen at the front of the classroom.
Older SMART Boards used clickers, wireless handheld devices that can be connected to it so students can answer quiz questions and polls.

SMART Board Software
The SMART Board software program called SMART Notebook is what really helps make SMART Boards a great educational tool. SMART Boards can certainly be used without the SMART Notebook software, but then it is basically just a giant touch screen in the classroom. This program takes presentations beyond simple slide shows and makes them interactive, which helps keep students engaged. SMART Notebook allows the teacher to create lessons involving matching games, adding labels to diagrams, quickly graphing math problems, and much more. Of course, teachers do not always have time to create their own lessons from scratch. Fortunately, there are many pre-made lessons on practically any topic created by fellow teachers and uploaded to the SMART Board website that are available for download.
