Review of Promethean ActivBoard
This review listed the pros and cons of this particular brand of interactive whiteboards. This board requires a stylus in order to control it in contrast to the Smartboard that you can control with your fingertips. There are pre-made activities and lessons the teacher can use, much like the Smartboard. I found a picture of what the setup looks like and it seems to be more kid friendly and colorful than the smartboard brand.
One thing that seemed really cool to me about this brand is a slate that the students have at their desk that they can control the board from their seats with.
Some questions: Have you used different brands of whiteboards or just this one? If so, is this one better? What makes this system frustrating to you as a teacher? How long did it take to become familiar with this technology? How has this impacted your teaching? Have you found lessons that are helped more by the ActivBoard than others?
