Entry #8 - Smartboard presentation

After using the smart board in an educational setting, I can see both its uses and distractions. If it is not lined up correctly or gets a gliche in any way, a teacher can waste valuable time fixing the problem. I think if I had one in my classroom, I would have to do a lot of practicing on it to avoid any of those mishaps. I do see, however, how it can help draw the students into the lessons and encourage them to actively participate.
