My Reflection
- What I have learned during the creation of my SMART Board presentation is that there are
endless possibilities when it comes to creating effective and engaging activities for lessons. By
using the activity builder, I could create my own game, which is very entertaining for students,
and I could fine tune the activity for whatever subject I want to teach.
- During this project I learned that you can make mistakes because there is always the trusty
undo button to click. This gives you the freedom to experiment and test out your designs and
ideas without worrying about making a mistake and not being able to correct it.
- What I also learned while designing my pages is that you should always remember to lock your
content! As I am new to the SMART software, I did not think about this until I was halfway
through, so in the future I will lock as I create, instead of going back after.
