Emphasis on learner focused objectives

Focus on learner-interactivity, not educator interactivity.

The learning outcome is observable and measurable:
Can you observe if the learners have grasped the concept?
How can you measure this?

If assessment is included, it must be appropriate to the learning outcome.

There are many opportunities for the learner to practice the skills we are teaching them.

The screen is uncluttered.
If animation is used it has a purpose.

The instruction is sequenced from easy to difficult and/or from few to many.
The screen does not include irrelevant clues that give away the correct answer.

Questions to ask when researching Interactive Whiteboard technology:
![Page 14: Fundemental elements of quality interactive whiteboard lessons](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051514/548f4731b47959045d8b460f/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Price? Pricing is always a consideration. More expensive does not necessarily mean better.What is included in the price?What is the warranty period? What are the installation costs? If you have technical/ hardware problems, do you have to call technicians to come to your school or does the supplier have a swap out policy?Is the lesson creation software powerful and easy to use? Has the software been designed with education in mind?Does your school pay for software updates/ annual fees? Is training included in the price of the unit? How much/ how often?
![Page 15: Fundemental elements of quality interactive whiteboard lessons](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022051514/548f4731b47959045d8b460f/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Is training hands on where educators create lessons themselves during the sessions? Is there free online training for teachers? Does the supplier supply resources, lessons etc when you purchase the unit? What other resources are available for use with the board/ unit? Is there a robust, relevant education community that teachers can tap into to download lessons, galleries and links? Are South African lessons available?Is there online technical, professional support with regards to assistance with improving on or enhancing the quality of lessons created by your teachers? How many SA schools are using the product? What is the extent of the service and backup offered by the supplier?
