| INTERACTIVE
WHITEBOARDS (SMART
BOARDS)
Klemzig Primary
provides students with the latest technologies to support student
teaching and learning. We have invested in Interactive Whiteboards
(IWBs) in each classroom. An IWB is an electronic, touch activated
whiteboard, which when connected to a data projector and computer,
becomes a powerful information and communications technology (ICT)
tool. In the hands of skilled teachers IWBs add a new and exciting
dimension to the teaching/learning process. Teachers have the capacity
to dramatically enhance the use of ICT in all facets of school life,
and in turn markedly improve the quality of teaching and in turn
student learning. As the IWBs are activated by touch they are a simple
to use but powerful medium for teaching and learning. IWBs
enable students to interact with each other as well as the computer
and readily access and manipulate all forms of digital information.
