Interactive Whiteboards
Touch sensitive devices are becoming a common technology and have made their way into UF classrooms. These interactive whiteboards bring the ability to interact with the computer, without a physical mouse or keyboard, and allow annotating over the displayed screen. In this session we will explore the different types of interactive whiteboards on campus, what makes them different as well as a demonstration with the Center for Teaching Excellence's Polyvision Board.
