SMART Board Professional
Development
Proposal Created By:Jennifer Jones
Overview
Project Goal:Facilitate the training of Millennium Middle School’s teachers in the use of the SMART Board, as well as its software and applications
What is a SMART Board?An interactive whiteboard with a touch sensitive screen that works in conjunction with a computer and a projector
NeedTo supplement our lessons with an available technology (SMART Board) that is not readily used in order to provide the students with an active and constructive approach to learning.
This will help students create meaningful connections and increase retention of the skills and concepts.
Why focus on the SMART Board?Offers a variety of capabilities:
Manipulate text and images on the screen
Take notes in digital ink and save them for future use
Use web-based resources
Show and write notes over educational video clips
Demonstrate or use software at the front of the room
Showcase student presentations
Use software provided by SMART Technologies
Versatility in accessing Internet or commonly used programs (i.e. PowerPoint)
Why focus on the SMART Board?
Creates active learning environment
Utilizes the constructivist approach
Allows for use of Brophy’s “strategy teaching” method Teacher can model skills or activities while conducting “think alouds”
Why use PD time for this?North Central Regional Educational Laboratory
“The primary reason teachers do not use technology in their classrooms is a lack of experience with technology.”
“Ongoing professional development is necessary to help teachers learn not only how to use technology but also how to provide meaningful instruction and activities using technology in the class”
Plan of Operation
Teachers and Subject Matter: Media Specialist (Expert) and Project Director will design and develop the training and materials.
Setting: Training sessions will occur during weekly department meeting times.
Learners: Each department (science, math, language arts, social studies, music and art, and electives) would be assigned a training day.

PROJECT: SMART Board Professional Development PROJECT DIRECTOR: J ennifer J ones
The calendar highlights the tentative schedule of events for the SMART Board Professional Development Training. Dates are flexible and may be changed following feedback from administration.
As is, the schedule would allow for all teachers to receive training by the end of November with a post-training survey following near the beginning of May to determine the training’s effectiveness in increasing meaningful use of SMART Board technology.
Please see the table below for a brief description of each phase of the project.
The Media Specialist, Administration, and I will meet to analyze survey data and determine exact needs of staff. Training agenda and materials will then be developed.

PROJECT: SMART Board Professional Development PROJECT DIRECTOR: J ennifer J ones
The calendar highlights the tentative schedule of events for the SMART Board Professional Development Training. Dates are flexible and may be changed following feedback from administration.
As is, the schedule would allow for all teachers to receive training by the end of November with a post-training survey following near the beginning of May to determine the training’s effectiveness in increasing meaningful use of SMART Board technology.
Please see the table below for a brief description of each phase of the project.
Survey will be re-distributed to staff. Data will be compared to determine if meaningful use of and satisfaction with the SMART Board has increased following the training. (Evaluation)
Cost-Effectiveness
Main cost is time. We would need time for: Teachers to complete the survey
Survey is short so it can be completed during prep time
Media Specialist and Project Director to develop training materials
Release time would be ideal, but would cost extra money
One hour of each department’s meeting time No monetary cost as meetings are required, but does take
time away from other focuses, such as NCA
Alternatives Training at an all staff meeting
Eliminates small group setting
SMART online training Eliminates interpersonal and individualized focus
SMART on-site training More release time and more funding would be needed
SMART off-site training Increase cost but would reach less staff members
ConclusionWhen the alternatives are considered, the proposed training is the most effective use of time and resources.
Overall, costs of this project would be kept to a minimum and seems a small price to pay for the utilization of a technology that can be used to increase student achievement.
