"Hands down I would choose the IWB. I see my tablet as a convenience and my IWB as a necessity. I use my tablet as a lesson builder BEFORE class. My students use the IWB during class. Certainly I facilitate the lesson, but I would say that my…"

"I agree with the Tablet and wireless projector folks. For those who like students to get out of their seats, they can get out of their seat and come over to the Tablet...or the Tablet can go to them. I find the SB makes instruction too teacher…"
Julie Baird replied to David Sladkey's discussion Would you pick One Tablet or One IWB?"I think the answer to this question lies in the subject and the age of the students you teach.

Dan replied to David Sladkey's discussion Would you pick One Tablet or One IWB?"I currently have a mimio, but find that with a tablet and wireless mouse, I don't really need the mimio. I agree with the others who posted before me: the tablet helps make it more STUDENT interactive."
