Campaign themes
Technology in the classroom
|
Technology, training and support staff are key classroom elements. Interactive whiteboard technology is an example of technology that is being used to improve classroom instruction. Teachers enter classroom lessons on their computer and use interactive whiteboard technology to projected the lessons on the whiteboard in front of the students. With clicker in hand the teacher is free to move about the classroom instructing students and at the same time advancing the lesson page by page anywhere in the classroom. Videos from Teacher Tube or other educational websites can be added to lessons and seamlessly played as part of the lesson. The district has purchased whiteboard equipment and software from eInstruction (MOBI) and Smart Technologies (Smart Board). Some Palmdale schools have MOBI systems and some have Smart Board systems in their classrooms. The district needs to come up with a method and plan that uniformly implements classroom technology so companies will compete with each other. Wise use of funds stretches the value of every dollar in the budget and will allow additional purchases. Don will be relentless in his pursuit of using newly allocated funds for projects that promote education in the classroom, he needs your vote to create a better future for our children. |
