What You Will See in our Schools
An important piece of technology that more and more of our classrooms are starting to acquire are multimedia projectors

Multimedia Projectors
Projectors are hooked up to a computer which allows whatever is on the monitor to display in a large format where the entire class can see the image. This is great for whole class instruction.

Multimedia Projectors
We currently have over 290 multimedia projectors in our school division.

What You Will See in our Schools
One of the most popular technology tools in our classrooms are the SMART Boards.

SMART Boards
SMART Boards are used in conjunction with a computer and projector. The board allows a user to control a computer by using a finger or any object on the board just like they were using a computer mouse. Teachers and students interact with the board using software applications or online resources.

SMART Boards
We have over 129 SMART Boards in our school division. We know of two more orders that have been placed for additional boards.
