Connections

Administration implemented by getting the funding for SMARTboards. No further requirements were made by administration, beyond the proposal, for holding teachers accountable. Instead of a top down model of community, the teachers at Christ King have taken the lead in connecting their SMARTboards to their community of practice. Almost 50% of respondents in the survey use their SMARTboard to connect with communities outside of Christ King, and 42% of respondents share their SMARTboard files with other teachers.

Mentor- the instinct of connection p83 I am just pleased that I have a Smartboard this year and that I am able to ask certain teachers for assistance when I have questions.

Barriers

Great to have it - I wish there was more time to investigate resources and share ideas. We need to plan how to gather money for sites that charge for subscriptions. Thank you.

We need to make sure that all staff members are trained on the maintenance of the SMARTboards.
