I have just realized that this is the perfect group to discuss Smart Boards. I have been considering getting one, but I am not sure. They seem expensive, but there is a lot you can do with them. Our school could afford to buy one, but when I looked at how much it would cost to train on them, it seems out of reach. And I ask myself, if the training is so expensive, what happens when the people who trained move out of our school? Do we have to do it again? Are they so hard to use that the training is necessary? I do not want to buy one and have it become a way to use the internet, we have projectors already. Are they that much better than a standard setup? I have also heard that they can be hard to move, and since we can't get one for everyone, I am ready to give up on it. Has anyone used one in a library setting where people who are not "trained" use them with success, and for more than just a way to use the internet? Is it worth the trouble?
