How do UK teachers use interactive whiteboards?

I am an English high school student. In our classrooms, we have at least one interactive whiteboard in every room. Most rooms have one of those AND a normal board whiteboard too. We use the interactive whiteboards in nearly every lesson.

Teachers use them to show the whole class videos on the topic that we are currently researching, websites for revision and sometimes use them to open up a doodle thing where you can write sums and sentences. The teachers usually place the title, date, ect on the interactive whiteboards and rarely any teachers actually use the normal whiteboards in the classrooms.

Hope I helped, have a good evening!

They are commonplace in UK educational institutions nowadays. Their main purpose besides being allowing teachers to have lots of pre-prepared, neat and tidy work available instantly, as well as the ability to use various forms of multi-media and so called rich content, is interactivity. Allowing students to interact with work forces them to engage in their learning and can help maintain focus. There are also numerous interactive resources available on the internet from educational web-sites such as www.tutor2u.net, to further aid the education process.

In addition to the stuff you can do with a plain whiteboard and projector (Powerpoints, writing notes, showing videos), I use them for quizzes etc.

I can pick up and move objects around with the IWB - to uncover answers, slot answers into places, pick up and move diagrams of objects etc etc.

Hey there,

If you want to discover the secrets of drawing realistic pencil portraits you really need to visit this site: http://pencilportraits.toptips.org/

These drawing lessons, both throughly enjoyable and productive, go well beyond casual sketching: students learn to observe minutely the details of any given face, to see what is, and what is not, before them, and how to translate what they see into what are after all just pencil marks on paper.

I highly recommend it for both the experienced and the inexperienced artists alike.

ONe great thing about them is that you can save what you write on the board and make it available online to students.

You can also do things like set a timer, give the students 10 mins to do some work and have a clock countdown. You can also use random name generators so the kids can't say "you always ask me".

If you wish to show your small child to read popular words that'll likely run into and which are conditions to standard phonetic rules then the thing you need is here https://tr.im/Dx5zc , Children Learning Reading program.

 Children Learning Reading is a phonetic based examining system. This means that it first shows your son or daughter the words of the alphabet and the seems they make. It then applies that knowledge to help your youngster determine words on the basis of the looks the words make. This system was created to teach the fundamental "code" for studying initially. Only following it's been perfected are exceptions, complications, and modifications introduced.

If your referring to the individual boards for students, yes. However, the teacher has to be made aware through peer review, or something like that. If a teacher is concerned that is what he/she is doing, then it does not look bad for them to ask their peers or administrators to sit in on a class and just review their classroom practices. Other tools could be names on Popsicle sticks or index cards (I used to let the students draw them). The randomness keeps you from picking only the hands that goes up.
