Staff workshop - IWB hints and tips 2

Richard N, Eira, Cathryn & Analeen made these points:

• mute the screen when not in use
• use weblinks within the flipchart
• toolbar can be moved where you want it, rolled up and customised to your needs
• use personalised template daily with the day's objectives as starting point
• convert powerpoints to flipcharts so that students can annotate during presentations
• use Word and Activmarker
• use grids/lines background (faintly) to improve quality of own handwriting
• be conscious of students' writing/note-taking speed - don't move on to new page of flipchart too quickly
• get students using keyboard (where wireless) or pen to write themselves

If you want to add to these points, ask questions or give more details, please comment or post here so that all can see it.
