Interactive Whiteboard Video

Ruth McElhone gave a presentation during the CESI conference last month on using the Interactive WhiteBoard (IWB). She mentioned that she had put an instructional video on Youtube but I could never find it until it appeared in Ewen McIntosh’s favourites on his delicious site, which in turn get featured when you sign up to his blog.

In any case, here it is. We have (and underuse) Promethean, whereas Ruth’s presentation is on an alternative called Smartboard. Very impressive nonetheless.

Thanks Ruth

More Scifest Projects

I have been thinking of some more possible projects for Scifest 2008

  • Does water-divining work?
  • Do Horoscopes work?
  • How much energy is saved by switching appliances onto ‘Standby Mode’? An Energy-Meter is available for this.
  • Can girls really multi-task better than boys?

If any of these grab your fancy let me know!
