SMART Boards

Posted by Matthew McEwen

There are a few SMART Boards at the school and this year I've tried my best to expose the kids to them. Out of the three times I've taken the kids into the library room that's it's set up in, it's frozen up exactly 10-15 minutes into the use of it. Projector, board, and laptop all being issues and then I spend 10-15 minutes trying to get it working again. The kids have dubbed it the "DUMB board" and say "it's lost it's brain" and several other unfunny jokes and comments that didn't help while I was trying to get the stupid technology to work. I told the kids I'm giving it one more chance and then I'm waiting another 5 years. Ohh and that's Gwen the California valley girl in the picture ... the kids don't understand her too old for her age language and attitude.
