Smart board & Smart Notebook

Last night's class was all about the smart board. I have worked with the Smart Board before and I have recently discovered Smart exchange. Smart exchange is a great way to enhance your presentation with a pre-done presentation. You can tweak it to meed the needs of your lesson. One cool thing I really liked was the Magic pen. I like how when you form a circle it zooms in on the part you circled. It does the same thing for the square part. You can also draw something and it will go away. I love learning about the interactive and flash related components to make your lesson more interactive. I want my students to be engaged in the content and I want to guide them in a more fun way. I already knew how to make power points and now know how to make a prezi. My next technology exploration will be with the Smart Notebook software. I know I will use this to enhance my lesson plans as an aspiring educator.
