Smart Thinking of Smart Inventors



Living in world where technology is essential and ever-growing it is easy to perceive where the future of technology will lead. In education, many of our teachers use the opportunity to facilitate students with several educational tools that develop their knowledge and skills. The SMART Board 685ix interactive white board system goes beyond children's imagination. This simulation and problem solving software provides real imagery and instructional activities any learner needs to strive in the classroom. Its projector with wide screen is extreme eliminating glare and diverting projector light. It offers supreme image quality, advanced speed, brilliant colour, network ability and compatibility with other devices like the camcorder creating experiences for teaching and learning. At an educational exhibition in Tobago, the opportunity was given to a few pupils and myself where we experienced the SMART Board first hand. It was enjoyable. This software is a fundamental tool for the present classrooms as it can be used for teaching many subject areas where students will have the opportunity to experience technology like never before. I can not wait to see what is in store in technology for future classrooms.
