Tuesday, October 7th.

During the same class Daniela Bilbao also carried out her individual presentation. She chose Smartboards as her topic.
Daniela talked about the advantages and disadvantages of using a smart board, as well as the fact that in Chile just a few schools are implementing it. Daniela mentioned that in one school in Santiago they had incorporated smarts board for every lesson. At the beginning teachers only prepared power point presentations instead of employing the whole tools that smart boards have, but after trainning teachers were able to manage smart boars very well.
Daniela's presentation was very precise and interesting. Eventhough she got nervous at the beginning she knew the topic very well and made a good presentation.
I have to mention that smart boards are really helpful to the learning process of a child. Some months ago I was watching a news report about smart boards in an specific school in Santiago. The fact that caught my attention was that this school were using smart boards during English lessons; students could get a more interactive learning, which means, doing puzzles, practicing phonetics, and plenty of interactive games.
