Interactive Whiteboards

An interactive smart board is a tool that allows you to display content from a computer screen on a classroom whiteboard using a digital projector. Students and teachers can interact with the multimedia that is projected directly on the screen using a tool or even a finger. It is easy to use, improves teaching, creativity, and learning. It increases satisfaction and motivation in both teachers and students, thanks to the use of more varied, dynamic, and fun fonts. (Levy, 2002). Therefore, the contents are presented through multimedia, in an interactive and creative way, which allows students to generate knowledge and learning with less effort and in a practical and fun way, also promoting their creativity.

MimioStudio is a interactive whiteboard software that permits teachers to use the tools of the interactive whiteboard to create interactive whiteboard lessons, presentations, and collaborative and team practices or activities and take real-time formative assessments by connecting it to the whiteboard.
