Technology has advanced at an incredible speed within the last ten years or so. Every school year it seems that something new is being used, and every year, the technology gets more and more impressive. One piece of technology that I have researched, and benefited from recently is the SMART board. We have them in our classrooms at NNU, and I have seen them throughout the elementary schools I've visited this year.
The smart board is a white board that allows the teacher to have their computer screen up on the white board, and be able to access whatever is on the screen by a simple touch. Your fingers act as the mouse of the computer, and by pressing on a link, it goes directly to the page that the link leads to. It also allows teachers to use white board markers to circle things, write things or underline important information. This piece of technolgy helps in making everything faster, and more effective when it is in use in the classroom.
