Involve your students in the lesson by
encouraging them to write on the SMART Board's
durable surface. Using electronic ink in a
variety of colors, students can write over top of
computer images as easily as they would write on
a blackboard with a piece of chalk. More than
just a blackboard, the SMART Board allows you to
capture annotations and save them to your
computer. Now, you can review, edit and even
print lesson materials, complete with student
comments. http//www.smarttech.com/education/k12
