The learning resources presented on this site raise the level of interactivity obtained from your interactive whiteboard. An IWB should be interactive for all. Often commercial and net based interactive materials are too teacher orientated - they are about the teacher clicking and 'interacting' with the board, while the students just "watch the interaction". My Interactive Classroom resources are whole class activities. Interaction is designed to be between the students and the board or, even more importantly, the activities facilitate learning interaction between the students themselves.
