Educational Technology In Action

Visiting the website for our area newspaper, the Quad City Times, I came across an article that was about the application of technology in the classroom. Usually, due to the lack of funding available, some schools in the Davenport area cannot afford such interactive technologies for the classroom. This particular classroom at Neil Armstong Elementary School in Bettendorf uses an interactive whiteboard to aid student learning. In the linked video, it shows students studying a map of the northeast portion of the United States and students are to drag state names from the list to the appropriate state. Of course, this isn't the only thing that this whiteboard is capable of doing, but, it is a great asset to any classroom to enhance student learning. Read about this fascinating technology here!
