The first thing that we count in the list of additional gadgets is the touch pen of a student, that allows the students, to work simultaneously along with their teacher on the interactive whiteboard. This is an excellent device, since it can help the students to pay attention to the lecture with concentration, and can help them interact with the teacher, and clear all the misconceptions, or confusions that they have in their mind.
One of the most important gadgets that are to be accompanied along with interactive whiteboards is an interactive slate board. The function of this board can be well explained by the example that considers two teachers delivering a lecture on the theory of Darwinism. One teacher is on the interactive board explaining the theory while the other teacher can outline the implications of Darwinism on the world of today, and pass it to the entire class. Moreover, if a student is giving a presentation and the teacher is sitting behind observing them, they can easily correct the student on any mistake through this interactive slate board.
Another gadget that is worth mentioning here is the classroom response interactive gadget. This device can perform many functions. For example, if a teacher is taking a Multiple Choice Question exam, you just have to click the right choice on your device, and the results will be displayed as soon as the exam ends. This is also helpful at places where people have to poll, or complete surveys.
If you think that you have a bigger classroom, and you need yourself to be more audible, you can even accompany yourself with an interactive sound system that can be tucked in to your shirt, and can allow the back benchers listen to your voice with clarity.
These are some of the gadgets that can be accompanied with an interactive whiteboard. It is hoped that as time progresses, there will be more advancement in technology and much better devices will come in the market to make classrooms, and meetings, sessions that are healthy, interactive, and interesting.
