Dear Colleague
As part of their regional workshop programme, Netskills will be running the following workshop at Newcastle University in September:
Interactive Whiteboards & Audience Response Systems, 14th September
-----------------------------------------------------
Interactive whiteboards (IWBs) and audience response (or voting) systems have become widespread across the education sector in recent years. Are they being used well by the staff that have access to them? This workshop explores the possibilities provided by these devices. It discusses the pedagogic and curricular implications, gives a grounding in their main features and provides practical experience in using them.
This full days training is aimed at new, as well as experienced, lecturers, teachers and learning support staff. It does not require any technical knowledge.
Topics covered during this workshop include:
Pedagogic implications of IWBs and voting systems
Use within the curriculum, learning styles and good practice
Producing exciting and dynamic lessons with these devices
How these technologies can help with inspection by enriching learning and enlivening lessons
Tips on finding and using online resources
How the systems promote discussion and help reticent students
