Presenter:
Angela D'Angelo Often students view Mathematics as a dry, non interesting subject. Learn to use Smart Boards to teach Junior and Senior Maths topics in exciting and interesting ways that minimise work for teachers and maximise outcomes for students. Make learning maths relevant and enjoyable as well increase student interaction, understanding and retention of concepts. Numerous ready made lessons will be made available to all participants. You will be guided to learn how to create lessons using smartboard software incorporating such features as attaching sound files, video files, dynamic geometry files and graphing software files. You will also be shown how to start to build resources that can be reused and modified easily and given examples of ready made units of work as a take home resource.
