Adventures in Twitter


I came across a few interesting IWB links today on twitter.  

The first is the 2010 Interactive Whiteboard challenge:

 
http://iwbchallenge.wikispaces.com/

A series of challenges for educators and their students to try and then post on their blogs or online for other educators to see and do.  The challenges were created by IWB users from around the world.  Most of the challenges are pretty low level and stuff you already do, but I thought you might want to check it out.

Second is a link from one of the challengers, Tom Barrett:

Tom, a UK educator, created a google doc that he is sharing with the world called, "46 Interesting Ways to use an IWB"  a few fun tools including a description of crayon physics at #40.  


They are both worth a look.
