I remember when I was in junior high school. It’s slightly funny that it was SO EXCITING for the students and teachers when my public high school began installing white boards to replace the messy chalkboards. At first, only a few of the classrooms had them. But it didn’t take long for all of the teachers to request their own white boards.

The same trend is now unfolding with SMART Boards, or Team Boards. Public and private schools, colleges and universities, and businesses have all jumped on the bandwagon by replacing their white boards with new, interactive SMART Boards. Schools love them because they allow students to interact with the instructional material like they never could before, and businesses love them for their presentation capabilities. For a good look at the things a SMART Board can do, watch this short Youtube video.

As the guys out there where the rubber hits the road we have noticed a spike in team board classroom installations as their effectiveness in the classroom has been welcomed and accepted positively as teachers begin truly using them as an interactive device to increase communication with their students.

A team board, or as sometimes referred to as a classroom smart board, consists of 4 major components:

1. An actual white board similar to a chalk board, but a white board, onto which an image of the computer screen is projected. The white board may be written on as well as be used as a screen for a projector. The projector is mounted (hung) in a central part of the classroom where the teacher normally teaches from.
2. A projector that may be either mounted to the ceiling or on the wall just above the white board.
3. A podium behind which the teacher instructs the students which faces them.
4. A computer (tower, keyboard and mouse) which is mounted within the podium and connected to their local network (LAN).

How do we know this? According to A+ Mobile PC Doctors president, Michael Thomas, “We have seen a steady spike over the past year in team board installations in all of our territories, and they have been so well received by the instructors and students that we are seeing several of our clients install them in every classroom.” A+ Mobile PC Doctors actually performs everything from procuring Team Boards for their clients, to performing the actual on site installations in classroom environment.
