Interactive whiteboards and projectors suppliers

juneg · 2015-09-26 08:39:08

Hi all, Can you please suggest makes / providers of Interactive whiteboards , projectors etc for Primary schools. I'd appreciate the advice of teachers working with the boards as to what products are good as it is such an expensive investment. The costs vary widely obviously enough. Thanks

IWBs are being replaced in some places by touch screen tvs, though there is still a lot of debate around that too. The IWB , like all technology has a short-ish life. It it is used properly, it's a great tool, but if it is only a fancy whiteboard, ie just used to write on, then it's a very expensive waste of money. Be aware that the bulbs will need to be replaced and that can be costly.
