Interactive Board Basics

 


No matter what IWB software you use, some basics remain identical - both from the points of view of technology and methodology.

INDIVIDUALLY:
  1. Install and explore Activ Inspire (download here)  and Smart Notebook, try the basic functions, get the feeling of both softwares. For installation, see the first blog entry of this term. 
Activ KEY: 0016-4129-0456-5336-4576
  1. Follow the list of compulsory items below and practice these basic skills both in Activ and Smart.
  2. Explore the site http://www.veskole.cz/, try to identify high-quality materials, and recognise the faulty ones.

What can we use the Interactive Board Material for?

1. To identify the purpose of the material:
Intro – topic, aim, target group
Source – textbook
Credits

2. To identify the resources:
References – texts, audio, images resources (last page)
create your own images!

3. To suggest how to use the material:
– create a Teacher’s book (could be in side notes, or in the last page, or hidden within each page)
– instructions to tasks (focus on organization, variability)

4. To enable easy navigation: Insert links
In Activ Inspire - use commands "Another page" and "Open a website"
In Smart - right click at the object, use "Odkaz"

5. To use visual and auditory input: insert images, audio and video
In Active Inspire: go to Resource Browser (the symbol of 2 music notes)
In Smart: go to Gallery (the symbol of a picture)
In both: download an image, and drag it to the chosen page

6. To integrate games and animations into a lesson:
Explore the resourcepacks
Modify Flash animations (Smart)




You can find examples and instructional files online (try youtube), and also at http://prekladani.capsa.cz - folder  IWB Materials.
