So you have an Interactive Whiteboard in your classroom, now what? As more and more schools purchase SmartBoards, Promethean Boards, Mimio systems, and a host of other Interactive Whiteboard solutions, the expectation often seems to be that they will just teach the kids themselves.

Hi Rosanna - So glad you joined the MSP2 network. I wanted to point out that we've got lots of resources for middle school math educators - look at the left side of the Main page - Math Resource Guides, Diigo lists, and project blogs where we highlight exemplary online math and science resources and the research that is going on at the polar regions.
We've had three Tech Talks so far - one on Interactive Notebooks, Moodle (were you able to get to that one?), and Digital Storytelling. You can get to the recordings of those by clicking on the Web Archive link.
You can see all our upcoming events by clicking on the Events tab. The next TechTalk topic is Using Wikis. We've got lots more topics to cover in the next few months - technology, pedagogy, content knowledge, all sorts of fun stuff!
Any ideas or feedback you have would be greatly appreciated!
Wow, your quite the world traveler.
Its good to practice any skill you are going to use with your students. And, you can really practice your Ning skills here. There are so many tools that can be incorporated in innovative and creative ways. I look forward to hearing how your adventures in Ning go.
