Link to the activity for my presentation: http://exchange.smarttech.com/details.html?id=d5875907-2e6e-42c0-a94f-93303008fb60

List of features in my presentation:
Sound (balloons popping)
Graphics
Moving pictures and words

NET for teacher:

"Design and Develop Digital Age Learning
Experiences and Assessments: Teachers design, develop, and evaluate authentic
learning experiences and assessment incorporating
contemporary tools and resources to maximize content
learning in context and to develop the knowledge,
skills, and attitudes identified in the NETS·S."
This NET is included in my lesson by having students come up to the board and participate by actually using the SMART board. The SMART board is a contemporary tool and by having the lesson as an interactive slide show and game it involves the students in not only learning the lesson, but also how to work the technology.

NET for student:

"Technology Operations and Concepts
Students demonstrate a sound understanding
of technology concepts, systems, and operations."
By having the students actually participate in using the board (clicking the words, the frog, and balloons) it is helping them to begin to understand how to use the SMART board as by me using it in class they are able to see even more of the functions and how they work.

Future Learning:
Using an interactive white board in the class can be a tremendous tool for student learning. It can help keep them engaged and involved in their learning and even an active participant in the learning process. With all of the tools and resources available for interactive white boards it can help a teacher to vary the ways material is presented to reach every type of learner as well as keep students interested and avoid being mundane.
