SMART Table in the News!
(Video courtesy of ABC News)
The SMART Table is the latest product to be introduced to PS101 and, as you can see in this video, the staff and students enjoy using this new device.
We’d like to thank Gregg Korrol and his staff, especially Joyce Li and Helene Lau, who are featured in the report, for working the latest technology into their classroom.
For anyone not familiar with the SMART Table, it is a multi-touch, multi-user, collaborative learning center. It allows up to 8 students to interact with it simultaneously. The SMART Table currently has 8 applications which allow teachers to create custom content within the scope of the application. We will be showcasing each of these applications in the coming weeks.
In addition to creating you own content, SMART is providing content packs for download. Each content pack has an accompanying SMART Notebook lesson and SMART Response question set. You can see what content is available on SMART’s website.
Good news for existing SMART Table Users, PS101 allowed us to make one of their SMART Table content files available to our blog readers. Download the Table content file here.
