Smartboards Rule

Smart Technology

The current technology that has emerged in the last few years that shapes learning in third grade has been the Smartboard. Our school is themed Academy of Communications and Technology and it is an important component of this technology. It replaced the overhead projector and opened many opportunities to reach student learning styles by allowing for manipulation of objects.


It could be made better by getting rid of the shadows that impede movement of the objects on the screen. To make this technology even better and avoid the pitfall of the shadows, Smart should consider the projection from the back of the screen. The Promethean Boards allow for the light to come in from behind the screen; however, the features of the Smartboard outweigh the pitfall and I still like it better than the Promethean board.
