I didn’t think I’d actually see it.
I drove past a public primary school yesterday, only to see the message board out the front read:
INTERACTIVE
WHITEBOARDS K-6
Clearly this school sees it as its selling point. I suppose there were schools that marketed themselves on the fact they had computers, or later, how many they had. Some now even push that they have 1 to 1 laptop programs.
I suppose this also says something for the growth of the tool in Australia over the last few years. It now looks like a boat that at least some schools don’t want to miss.
Now we can almost boast the same claim (I bet the school in question didn’t have 25 classes to install them in to!), but I’d rather boast about the learning that is achieved using them as a tool.
Not so easy to put up on the message sign, though. I think we’ll stick with “Students Return Tuesday 14 October”.
