Administrator Track: It is our goal to help you learn ways to evaluate and shape your school’s or district’s SMART Board use. It is easy to walk into a classroom and see that a teacher has something displayed on a SMART Board, but how do you really assess what type of learning is taking place? We will investigate ways to further integrate and evaluate the use of the SMART Board interactive whiteboard, Notebook software, and other educational technologies. Together we will explore effective and engaging uses of the SMART Board, ways to help teachers plan and design interactive learning environments, how to use SMART Technologies products to assess student learning, and so much more.
Identify Effective SMART Board Use (Hands-on, 2 hours): Learn how SMART Board and Notebook software can be used to create an effective and meaningful lesson.
Planning and Designing Engaging Learning Environments and Experiences (Hands-on, 2 hours): Continuing from the previous session, you will learn simple techniques and best practices that teachers can use to design engaging and interactive lessons. Learn multiple tools to evaluate effective use of SMART Technologies products and other educational materials and resources. Share these tools with your faculty to help them plan and design their lessons.
Assessment and Evaluation (Hands-on, 2 hours): Learn how to use SMART Technologies products to collect and analyze data, interpret results, and communicate findings to improve instructional practice and student learning.
Upon completion of these three courses you will have a deeper understanding of how technology can be used effectively within the classroom. You will now have an efficient and valuable way to evaluate technology used in your school or district.
Cancellation Policy: We confirm all appointments prior to the date of training. If you cancel less than 24 hours prior to a confirmed appointment you will still be charged for the session (or you will forfeit the complimentary session).
