Go IWB! - Interactive Teaching and Learning on the Interactive White Board – ALP-NT2
ALPHA School of English

COURSE SUMMARY:
This practical and informative course has been designed with innovative classroom practitioners in mind. It will introduce you to IWBs if you are a first-time user and help you to improve your skills if you already have some experience of these exciting teaching tools.

Our skilled Teacher Trainers will demonstrate how the ActivInspire Studio computer programme, along with Promethean Projectors, can be used to plan creative and interactive lessons for a modern and technology-savvy audience. You will have daily opportunities to use these tools for yourself and you will work with others to create interesting and interactive activities. This course will really allow you to flex your creative muscles.

WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?
Aimed at: School Principals, Subject Department heads, teacher support and development staff, primary and secondary-level teachers (all subjects). English level: Intermediate (B1). Please feel free to bring your own laptop with you, especially if you use a different IWB programme to ActivInspire Studio at your school. If you do not/cannot bring your own laptop, find out if you can access your school’s IWB programme from elsewhere (there will be an access code/password). It is also recommended that you bring some of your existing paper-based classroom resources (worksheets; course books etc.) with you for use on this course.
