For Teachers

30 points posted to Education, Simplify IT by sabrina Jul 2

How about making the Promethean Board more useful by putting it on a slide (like a sliding door), so that teachers can continue to use their whiteboards to write on. While the smartboards are great, we still need to write on the white boards for instruction. It's like the old fashioned sliding blackboards.

Instead of the smartboard moving, why not have 2 enclosing door-like whiteboards? This could protect the smartboard when not in use and also, even with the doors open, the whiteboard could also be used, at the same time as the smartboard. This was the design in my primary school (I am now in college) and it works great.

It looks like what @sabrina needs are sliding Promethean Boards. I do wonder if teachers can write so much on the boards that the students minds are saturated with data, and need time to digest what has already been written.
