The use of Interactive Whiteboard technology is growing in the educational market. Nearly 40% of classrooms today have an Interactive Whiteboard, and this number is expected to grow to 70% by 2013. However, how many teachers actually use this new technology to its fullest? How many teachers have the time to create their own comprehensive interactive lesson plan? Furthermore, the amount of ready-made digital content currently available for this emerging platform is scarce. Below are 5 reasons why ready-made digital content is ideal for the busy teacher of today.
- Limits prep time. Ready-Made Digital Content significantly limits the amount of time teachers need for creating their own digital lesson plans. One lesson on an Interactive Whiteboard could take a teacher several hours to complete. Then, leaving no time for developing comprehensive assessments.
- Encourages hands-on and one-on-one teaching. Ready-Made Digital Content provides the educator with enough time to review and customize the lesson to fit with the individual needs of the students.
- Higher quality content. Ready-Made Digital Content provides high-quality interactive games and questions to fit within a specified lesson plan.
- Engages the classroom. Ready-Made Digital Content engages the students to become more interested and involved in the curriculum-content and classroom discussion.
- Encourages classroom interactivity. Ready-Made Digital Content creates opportunities for students to want and enjoy interacting with the curriculum-content displayed on the screen, as well as participate with fellow students.
