[CALIBK12] SmartBoards

[KAREN GONZALEZ]

Hi, All!
 
I just love the kinesthetic opportunities my Smart Board offers.  Here's the latest application:  One of our Special Day Class teachers wanted her students to know how to look up books using the Dewey.  I told my Library Practice students to set up a lesson based on the Dewey Decimal System card game I use when I teach them the system at the beginning of the semester.
 
They learned how to set up text boxes that move using the Smart Board software.  So, each text box held a Dewey call number, each slide had about 5 text boxes and when the class arrived, one of my students taught them to arrange the text boxes on each slide.  It was so interactive that the visiting students totally got the decimal part of the system and my students had a great time learning this very intuitive software.  Great fun!

I just moved into a new library complete with a Smart Board and Document camera. I am wondering how folks have made use of them in the library aside from using it as a projection screen. 
 
Thanks for your help.
