Digital class boards integrated with digital classroom software help to expand the nature of the content with the support of photos, illustrations, maps, graphs, games, and video. Digital boards make learning more dynamic by supporting different forms of content presentation.
Why Digital class boards are widely used?
• Increase participation: Digital whiteboard images can be saved and printed. So, students can concentrate on the topic without making notes.
• Stimulating creativity: students can write, draw or write on a digital whiteboard at the same time while class is going on. They receive feedback as well on the spot. So, students and teachers can check weak points over the topics.
• Structure the lectures: A teacher can schedule engaging learning tasks like match numbers and objects, picture and name match etc. in digital classroom software.
• Interact and share: One can interact with the activity on digital smart board to demonstrate the grasp of any subject by touching, drawing and writing. The teacher can identify the student's strengths and weaknesses.
• Access to internet resources: Teachers can easily connect with online resources such as documents and videos. Add supplements to the study materials through research online.
• Go Green: Smarts boards eliminate the process of writing, making notes on paper, or printing images and documents. Reduce the use of ink and paper and provide pollution free environment. Pen and interactive board do not harm a teacher's health as well.
I would greatly appreciate your input on how I should address the behavior of students after two weeks of absence due to illness. The Sub who covered me for 8 days ( 4 days each Block, no school on Good Friday and I worked Friday 4/26 left notes regarding unacceptable behavior of my students. You know when the Cat's away the mice will play. As simple as talking out loud to throwing paper planes with very offensive notes written on each as well as a condom stuffed with bread crumbs thrown at her !!!!! )
My intention is to not say anything. My silence was deafening on Friday. Since I don't have names even though I could easily get into a class discussion which would just take more time that we don't have considering we are approaching end of year state testing dates as well as final exam week! I just don't have the energy.
I doubt speaking to the grade level administrator will do much. So I am just going to input work turned in, those without completed assignments "0" and write referrals for the skippers and keep it moving.
