Interactive Whiteboard Resources

From:  Free Technology for Teachers
http://www.freetech4teachers.com/2012/09/interactive-whiteboards-101.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+freetech4teachers%2FcGEY+%28Free+Technology+for+Teachers%29&utm_content=Google+Feedfetcher#.UGDo1LJlSDk

Danny Nicholson is an interactive whiteboard expert who I've had the pleasure of seeing in action a few years ago. Since then his blog, The Whiteboard Blog, has been one of my go-to places for information about interactive whiteboards.

Today, Danny published a new post that every teacher new to using interactive whiteboards should bookmark. Interactive Whiteboard #101: A Short Primer offers information that can be used by teachers who have Promethean, SMART, Mimio, and Easiteach interactive whiteboards. A few highlights from the post; Danny recommends having a Dropbox account and a large USB stick, he refers readers to some free resources for all boards, and explains the basics of using IWBs.

If you're new to using IWBs, check out Danny Nicholson's Interactive Whiteboard #101.

Sounds Maps from the British Library

This site has thousands of sound recordings you can use in your classroom from Holocaust survivors to animals and indigenous music to accents and dialect.  It is a little confusing to navigate, but under each category are many, many subcategories with interesting sound recordings.

Social Media Revolution

This is an astonishing video about the impact of social media on our world today.  It shows remarkable statistics that I think will surprise you.  I can foresee using it for our own knowledge about the tools we have as 21st century teachers, and I can see it as a useful discussion starter in our classes.
I saw it on a site I really recommend, Free Technology for Teachers. More about this site in future entries.
