Inspiration

The inspiration software is, somewhat ironically, one of the most inspiring tools we've used this semester. I've never encountered a program that can make charts, graphs, and webs the way this one does. It's great- you can pick colors, themes, shapes, pictures, etc to make the best visual representation of material possible. I especially liked using the small clip arts that the program had available. I am looking forward to making a lot of these diagrams in the future!

IWB

The Interactive Whiteboard software is a fantastic teaching tool. Its ability to produce interactivity in the classroom is great. Students of course get the basic information through the slide shows, but they can go up to the projector and move things around, discover some hidden words or pictures, and view videos. It was fun for me to use the software and create a lesson with him- hopefully it will equally fun for my students to use it!
