Use of basic software in the classroom

Currently, I am in the junior high doing my first educational practicum at Cache La Poudre Junior High, an excellent school.

My classroom teacher that I am shadowing, more or less, is amazing and uses many different teaching techniques to increase learning. One of them is using basic software. A favorite is the SmartBoard where she can touch and write on the projected computer screen. She can write notes on the page, save them on the computer, and print or post online for absentees or simply to see what she covered the next time notes begin again.

I would love a smart board!
