The mission of this blog is simple. Share information and resources so teachers will utilize their SMART Boards in a way that increases learning in the classroom. That's why I end each of my posts with "Sharing is Caring!"
I'm really encouraged that more and more educators are sharing what they have and what they know using the Internet. For example, yesterday, Sheryl left a comment on the post "SMART Boards and 1st Grade Mathematics" and provided a link to her resources. Her website, called The Learning Pad, is simply fantastic!!! It has links to some of the best interactive websites covering all subject areas.
Where else can teachers go to find free resources for their SMART Board? You don't need to look any further than the Gallery tab inside your Smart Notebook software. If you click on the Gallery tab and select Online Essentials for Educators, you get a list of resources from Smart Technologies including:
- Teachers´ Hub
- Lesson activities
- Curriculum standards
- Lesson resources
- SMART Exchange
- SMART-accredited titles
- EDCompass newsletter
One place that is often overlooked is the Download section of the SMART Exchange. If you search around a little, you'll find tutorials, videos, Notebook files, research articles, and a whole bunch more. For example, check out the resources available from the Illinois SMART User Conference.
Notice that Smart Technologies' Ginny Washburne shares her favorite resources on her Delicious site. Just another great example of...
Sharing is Caring!
