What is a qualified SMART Board lesson?
A qualified SMART Board lesson is a lesson of at least forty minutes in length, which teaches a specific concept, thought or idea, and makes use of the dynamic capabilities of the technology that the SMART Board offers. A qualified SMART Board lesson should include interactive components which invite participation by students in the learning experience. A qualified SMART Board lesson is more than merely scanned pages of text (e.g. a page from the Talmud or science textbook) or notes which could have been done without an interactive tool.
