Sharing not Staring (plus CD)
by NATE ICT Committee, Edited by Trevor Millum & Chris Warren
Drawing on the experience and expertise of five members of the NATE ICT committee, Sharing not Staring steers teachers towards using the interactive whiteboard in ways which purposefully tap into its huge potential to make teaching more interactive, more exciting, creative and enjoyable. The approaches described fall into the following broad categories: Spotlight and word cover/reveal effects - having the impact of a puzzle which emphasises the questions as opposed to a pat answer. Text organisation - enabling sequencing and exploration of syntax. PowerPoint - exploiting the creative potential of this often overused or misused tool. Word - performing the equivalent of conjuring tricks in the classroom. You can animate text, map it, organise it, hide it or scramble it. Image, moving image and Flash - discovering the impact and potential of well chosen still images or video clips. flash programs that have specific applications with words can add to the wonder and magic of English. The activities can be undertaken with any of the popular brands of interactive whiteboard. The book is not divided into Years or Key Stages. It is not even cross-referenced to Strategies, Frameworks or the National Curriculum. Teachers will be able to see where the different approaches fit in with their teaching and it will be quickly apparent that the ideas and techniques described are relevant in Scotland, Wales and Ireland as they are in England - indeed, anywhere that English is taught and enjoyed. A CD is included with materials which relate to specific units within the book and which offer additional texts and other resources.
