Self-Directed Learning Project- SMARTBoards

Kathy Cassidy. (September 28, 2006). Smartboard. Retrieved from Flickr

For my self-directed learning project I am going to learn how to use a SMARTBoard. SMARTBoards are the "new thing" to use in elementary school classrooms. I would like to learn about all the programs that are available to use on the SMARTBoard. I have also heard that there are many free online materials and resources that would be beneficial for the students. This semester I am placed in a classroom that has a SMARTBoard and my teacher uses it daily for teaching math. I hope that she is able to teach me how to use the SMARTBoard and I am able to learn all of the benefits a SMARTBoard brings to the classroom. By the end of the semester I hope to be able to teach a complete SMARTBoard lesson in the classroom I am placed in.
