I just love the automated response systems on these whiteboards, so simple, yet so effective!
An excellent insight – thanks for the video!
Interactive whiteboards have revolutionised classrooms for many teachers. However, after playing around with the new LCD touch screens, they are much more responsive, colour bright, and have no shadowing from over head projectors. Wouldn’t mind one in my house!
