“Smart Boards in the Classroom” A Technology Plan By: Renee Rostien EDT 6040 Dr. Todd Fishburn

Vision Vision Now in the 21st century technology is all around us everywhere.  Desktop & laptop computers  wireless internet  digital cameras  video recorders  graphing calculators  interactive white boards  document cameras, and so much more Unfortunately, not all schools have caught up to the 21st century where technology is concerned.  Some high schools do not even have wireless internet connection.  2 to 3 outdated desktop computers / current software can't be installed There is so much more that students should be getting from technology than just drill and kill technical worksheets on a computer.

Technology Plan  Implement the use of Smart Boards in all instructional classrooms.  Teachers will engage students with hands on activities.  Students will be able to problem solve.  Students will work collaboratively.  Improve their academic achievement levels.

What is a Smart Board? “ Interactive White Board” A Smart Board is a tool used for creating and sharing information. When hooked up to a computer, the white board becomes a live computer desktop. Users can present, alter and save information. The teacher or student can use their finger right on the board as a mouse, controlling any computer application. Picking up one of the Smart pens switches into writing mode. Notes can be written in digital ink directly over images, documents, or web pages. The notes and pages written on can be saved to a file. This is a great way to catch up students who were absent on a particular day.

Initiatives to Address Needs The goal here is for students to achieve a higher level of academic success While they interact with the teacher and a Smart Board. Advantages User friendly Different learning styles Students with special needs Hands on Classroom management Imaginative lesson planning Distance Learning Absent students Disadvantages Expensive ($8,702.00) Damaged by regular markers Fixed height Discipline (Monitor Students) Difficult to write on Frustrated troubleshooting (professional development)

Case Studies The Florida School for the Deaf and the Blind in St Augustine, wanted to improve learning outcomes By using the Smart Interactive Whiteboard. teachers were able to keep their hands free to use sign language. Students with some visual impairment can see computer images during lessons and teachers say students are more focused on lessons and motivated to learn. (education solutions, 2007) Jennings school district is an at-risk district located in a low-income area of St Louis, Missouri. Seventy-seven percent of Jennings’ students qualify for free and reduced-fee lunch programs, and many students come to the district two or three years behind their grade level. The staff wanted to close the achievement gap. To achieve this goal the district needed to find a way to provide their students with access to technology that would help them implement an inquiry-based approach to education. Administrators created a plan to reallocate funds and purchased technology such as SMART Board interactive whiteboards. They also provided teachers with technology training and put the technology in core classrooms to ensure all students were exposed to this new teaching style. The results show that Jennings’ students have raised their test scores, but that's not all. Attendance levels and motivation levels are way up, and behavior problems are way down. Since putting technology in the hands of properly trained staff, Jennings has also noticed that teachers were rejuvenated and excited to teach. (education solutions, 2007)
