DAY TWENTY-THREE: April 13th
A piece of evidence shown within the reading, Interactive Whiteboards and Learning: A Review of Classroom Case Studies and Research Literature, that proves Smartboards are worth the educational investment is the strong learning production. Current learning theories promote student engagement and consider this type of engagement to be a key component of knowledge construction. These learning theories include constructivism and active learning. With the Smartboard both of these tasks can be met along with many others. "The SMART Board interactive whiteboard supports interaction and conversation in the classroom; it helps with the presentation of new cultural and linguistic elements" (Gerard 1999).
