Interactive Board

ITB works as a multifunctional tool: you can present text, images, audio, video, internet resources...
But you (or the students) can also INTERACT with the board - write answers to questions, drag and drop, draw, or play games.

Our task is to explore the possibilities of SMART and Activ IWB software. The editor works intuitively, and some choices are similar to those available in MS office. To get an idea, we will also evaluate some internet-available examples.

CLASS TASKS

1. Browse some shared interactive board materials, to get an idea :)
http://www.veskole.cz/
http://www.jazykyinteraktivne.cz/
http://www.pekarjeucitelonline.cz/
http://www.gymnaziainteraktivne.cz/
http://www.activucitel.cz/

2. Create your own project! Open Smart or Activ Inspire. Start a new file.
Enter the topic and your name and date into the first slide.
Insert a text, an image, a weblink, explore the pen function.
Browse all menus. Feel free to experiment and have fun creating. :)

3. Explore the imbedded galleries. Look also for animations!

4. Create an activity to practise the set of vocabulary you chose for your project. For each task, include the feedback; a good tip is to duplicate the page, and solve the exercise there.

5. Use the last pages as T's book - write there the standard info (topic, target group) and methodological instructions fot the Teacher. Link the T's book to the first page and vice versa.

6. Do you know how to get the IWB material online?
Tip: if the file is too big to be put into webzdarma directly, save it into some permanent online space (e.g. dropbox) and enter the link into your web.
