Emerging Technology

The Interwrite Pad is a piece of emerging technology that may prove to become a very useful tool in the classroom. It allows a teacher to teach a lesson from anywhere in the class. The Interwrite Pad can be connected with an Interwrite Board to present an interactive image surface. A teacher can write and teach a lesson while sitting down, standing by trouble causing students, or from the back of the classroom. Classroom management may be improved because of the unlimited movement now provided to teachers through the Interwrite Pad and Board. Students can also use the Interwrite Pad to interact with the lesson and with the teacher. Several pads can be active in one classroom. The Interwrite Pad will be very helpful in my classroom in teaching my lessons.
