Interactive White Boards

As a new teacher at my school, I never received training on this wonderful resource. One day, the students and I experimented together and I realized that I am very bad at writing with the pen. Some days, I feel like if I were properly trained on how to use all of features, my students would be a lot more engaged in the class activities. I would like to find some time to explore my school's resource and see what I can do with the board.

Podcast

I am very excited to experiment with the Podcast. I was able to write the script and start uploading Audacity. I have some experience recording podcasts, and I know they are very fun and interesting to create. I started thinking of how I could use this in my class. My students love to record and hear or see themselves. I think this would be another alternative to present their research papers, mini projects or other summary assignments.
