Interactive Whiteboard Technology

In this module, there were three technology tools that helped me create an interactive whiteboard lesson. I did not use all of these tools but they will help me in the future when planning a whiteboard lesson for my students.
The first tool was Quizlet, which is a mobile and web-based study/assessment tool that can tremendously help students study and take quizzes. I used Quizlet in this module as an assessment tool. This will be an advantage in my future classroom because it can help me create study tools and assessments for my students. A problem that may occur would be technology not working or students trying to cheat on assessments.
The next tool that was beneficial to me was QuizEgg, a cross-platform, web-based assessment creator. I can use this tool in my classroom to create web-based assessments for the students. One challenge that I may face with this technology tool would be students trying to look at other things besides the assessment while taking it.
The third and final technology tool that could benefit me in my future classroom would be Prezi. Prezi is mostly like an upgraded PowerPoint presentation that has better effects. Prezi allows you to make presentations just like PowerPoint does, but it is web-based so you would have to use the Internet. A way to implement Prezi into the classroom is to make interactive whiteboard presentations with it. A challenge that may be faced when using Prezi would be the Internet or technology device that you are using not working. All in all these three tools would be very beneficial in the classroom.
