Interactive Whiteboard

With the rise of technology and the ongoing progress of efficiency focus many schools in Germany have replaced their classic blackboard with interactive whiteboards (IWB). Unfortunately some older teachers do not have any clue how they have to use them. To prevent this nescience from our course members we had an advanced introduction to the use of interactive whiteboards (introduction for beginners took place in the "New Media in the FL-Classroom" Seminar).

I found a nice Youtube-clip to show the possibilities of IWBs:


Additionally we were asked to search the internet for pages on which teaching material for teachers were offered. The subject of the teaching material had to be the subject we study next to English. In my case that is History.

Here are five pages you get teaching materials for History from:

IWB section of the Klett publisher company
SMARTboard lesson material
SMARTtech Exchange
Teacher LED Whiteboard Resources
Topmarks Education Search Engine resources
