[LM_NET] GEN: SHARE: White Board Technologies

[Linda DeVore <linda.devore@CGELEM.K12.AZ.US>]

Several times in the past few weeks people have posted requests for
information about interactive white board technologies.  One of my teachers
is completing her masters in educational technology and for one of her
classes she and her team members have created a WebQuest on interactive
whiteboards.  The task is "to create a PowerPoint presentation with a
minimum of 6 slides, not including the title and reference slides, for your
colleagues which discusses the various attributes of three interactive
whiteboards, and then recommends one of the boards based on which one will
best meet the needs of special education students."  They have included
links for the different boards including the newer portable "attachment"
type of white board plus a collection of questions that you should be
thinking about when looking for an interactive white board.  Here is the
link: http://pine.ucc.nau.edu/gab38/etc547/Whiteboards.htm  
BTW If you back off on the addy to the 547/ you will also find a link for
Screen Readers and Screen Magnification Software.
