Lesson Structure
• It is not an interactive whiteboard lesson!• Think about what you do in an ordinary
lesson and integrate the IWB as a tool to help you with your teaching.
• Starter Activity• Main Activity - What will the students do?• Plenary

Software
• Do you have access to the latest version?• Is your technician aware of how to access
them?• Gallery, Clipart and Pictures• Have you got access outside your
classroom?
![Page 13: Making the Most of Your Interactive Whiteboard](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816735550346895ddbe2be/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Pens and Highlighters
• Remember not all students can read too much text on screen.
• It can be helpful for some students to draw words or highlight certain information.
• Writing on the IWB is a good thing! (Mostly)• Be spontaneous – capture ideas.• SAVE your lesson.
![Page 14: Making the Most of Your Interactive Whiteboard](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816735550346895ddbe2be/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Using Text
• Your materials will look professional• Students will find it easier to read• Most software has handwriting recognition
– this can be good for labelling drawings
How much of your lesson do you prepare in
advance?

Blind, Revealer, Screenshade
• This helps when you want the students to see a little bit of information.
• You can also use it to cover up unnecessary details.
![Page 17: Making the Most of Your Interactive Whiteboard](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062521/56816735550346895ddbe2be/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Spotlight tools
• Sometimes there is too much information on screen
• Some students need help to focus on the detail.
• Some students may be thinking something different.

information all within your flipchart/notebook/authoring tools
3. Use video

Locking and Unlocking• Your objects can be locked to a page…this
is particularly useful if students are coming up to the IWB
• You will need to unlock objects to be able to adapt someone else’s material.

“The whiteboard is not a magic carpet. It will not float into your classroom and whisk your troubles away. It is more like investing in a new house, certain things are in place when you agree to the purchase, not all of it is organised as you would like, but with the careful gathering of the things you need, and a few new installations, it soon begins to feel familiar. However, it will need continued love, investment and maintenance to ensure that it remains adequate to be your C21st home.”
Diana Bannister 2010
