Ever heard of the Greek Titian Prometheus?
In Greek mythology, Prometheus stole fire from the almighty Zeus (the king of the gods) to save and enrich mankind.
According to Promethean World, “Just as the Greek Titan, Prometheus, unleashed creativity and productivity for mankind, Promethean is determined to do the same for education.”
Promethean ActivBoards are interactive whiteboards that capture students’ attention by incorporating the web, videos, graphics, images, games, audio, and much more. All of these educational tools allow teachers to educate, assess, motivate and engage learners. Promethean ActivBoards are considered the world’s most durable interactive whiteboards. These boards give teachers the chance to diversify learning and enhance direct instruction. The boards were designed by teachers for teachers and can be used in any classroom.
The ActivBoard comes with one of three software packages: ActivPrimary, ActivStudio, or ActivSoftware Inspire Edition.
ActivPrimary is designed for younger learners, while ActivStudio is tailored for secondary learners. The ActivSoftware Inspire Edition combines both. The teacher can choose primary or secondary based on grade level.
This board has so many unique features that are designed to enhance the learning process.
ActivWand
Do you want a way for every student in the classroom to actively participate in the lesson? With Promethean’s ActivWand, every student has the chance to be involved. Students that need help reaching the board will love the ActivWand because it measures 21 inches in length. You don’t have to be tall to reach all the areas on the board. Students will think the wand has magical powers because it can hover and click items on the board. The name certainly does justice!
ActivPen
The ActivPen is a wireless mouse-pen. It writes like a pen but acts like a mouse. The ActivPen can do everything a computer mouse can do. It is designed to easily hold and handle.
ActiVote
Taking quizzes and tests are not something students look forward to doing. Well, Promethean has a tool that just might change students’ attitude. ActiVote is a personal response system that is designed to encourage students’ participation. All students have to do is make a choice when a question is displayed on the board. With a click of a button, the system captures students’ responses and saves the answers on Excel so teachers can see later.
The Promethean ActivBoard is an exceptional creation. We all know that students learn more when they are actively involved in the lesson. Promethean ActivBoards defiantly engages a variety of learners. My favorite part about the board is the ActiVote system. This is a great way to motivate students to take quizzes. They even make quizzes seem fun. I never thought I would be able to say that.
Here is a video that sums up Promethean ActivBoards!
