What board you use?

What is a blackboard? or perhaps whiteboard? Many students nowadays are too familiar with their Smart Board. Blackboards are out, not many schools are using blackboard nowadays. However, white boards are declining as well. Come to think of it, most of us are from the black and white board generation. We had fun with the chalks and the markers however there are definitely constraint towards teaching using those.


How many have actually benefited from the use of LCD projector and white board learning. No doubt that learning has been rather interesting with the use of projector and computer. Well that is at least what I think of. Student tend to pay attention for the use of projection teacher as compared to the dull old use of blackboards.

What about young learners? I am not quite sure they would benefited a lot if this is used alone without the use of anything that encourages their senses. But then again, the use of smart board seems to bridge the use of technology as well as blackboard/whiteboard. Indeed, the generation this day are lucky to have a board that can be touched. Indeed this is the progressive era as termed by Mike.
