Why Use a SMARTboard?

With SMARTboards in your classroom, teachers can provide an engaging 21st century learning environment for his or her students.  Colorado Academy and Cresthill Middle School are two SMARTboard Showcase schools and are a testament to the success of SMARTboard technology.  One teacher said, “This year, more than ever, teachers and students have embraced technology and learning with new curiosity and vigor. It’s a stimulating and inventive environment that attracts everyone.”  SMARTtechnologies provides its customers with a plethora of resources to help implement the technology in the classroom.  Just like students love to show off their skills in front of the other students, students will love to come to the front of the classroom and use the smartboard.
