Promethean Boards in Education

My school district is working towards the purchase and installation of Promethean Boards for all classrooms. Currently all 7-12 grade and special education classrooms have them installed. This summer they will be installed in the 5th and 6th grade classrooms and, keeping my fingers crossed, 3rd and 4th grade will receive them next year. We have started to receive some training on the basics of what they can do and how to use them. So far what I have learned has gone beyond my wildest dreams. I am so excited about the potential they will bring to my classroom. The Marzano Study on Promethean boards has shown that they increase student achievement across grade levels and subject areas. I feel this at large is due to the student interaction they bring. I believe students will be more attentive to any lesson involving the board than they would be to a traditional lesson. In addition, the resources that will now be at hand for me as a teacher will be a huge asset to my curriculum.
