Check out this link for a relatively inexpensive piece of equipment to make the whiteboard in the classroom interactive : e Beam.
If you have any experience with the Luidia eBeam in the classroom, could you post a few comments? I was interested in knowing more about FREE applications available to use with it to support the variety of subjects. My daughter's school has purchased a few and the kids love it! I am currently trying to raise funds to purchase one so that both third grades have a dedicated eBeam rather than sharing.
Thanks for your input!
Happy October everyone!

Another Creative Product from EDM310 Alumnus Dillon Rogers
Dr. Strange! ~
I made this for an LP on Alcohol Awareness in one of my health classes.
I absolutely could not find an appropriate video on YouTube or for free that would get the point across to younger students about the basic ideas of alcohol (K-3rd graders). So, I made this video Alcohol is a Drug.
This took me about 1 1/2 hours to make between editing photos and making it look perfect in my own mind, but is the most simple video I have ever made and anyone could definitely do this as a theme for several different units. I used iPhoto, made a slide show and pulled it up into iMovie. I edited it just a tiny bit more, but then I uploaded it to YouTube and stuck it in my LP! Now I can share it with anyone. :)
I will literally jump at any opportunity a teacher gives me to do something creatively. I haven't had as many opportunities this semester (it makes me miss EDM), but don't worry, I'll never give up!
Please feel free to share with the class or anyone else you know and critique for what you will!
Thanks again,
Dillon Rogers
