Content

• As classroom practitioners we understand the
  importance of streamlined lesson preparation and
  enhanced lesson materials that can be readily
  integrated into classroom programmes. The
  interactive whiteboard technology benefits
  learners and educators.
• We will showcase ways to benefit learners through
  pupil engagement, learner motivation and
  knowledge retention. There will be examples of
  dynamic interaction through the use of student's
  favourite technologies keeping them focused and
  on task. We will provide examples of how
  different learning styles are catered for.
• There are also benefits for educators as the
  efficient use of interactive whiteboards assist
  in lesson preparation. They are easy for
  beginners to walk up and use, shortening lesson
  integration time. We will provide motivation to
  teachers to incorporate and develop more digital
  and interactive resources.

Making A Difference
6
One day a man was walking along the seashore.
He noticed that during the night many seashells
and starfish had washed upon the shore. Enjoying
the morning sun and cool sea air, the man
strolled for miles along the sand.
7
Far off in the distance, he saw a small figure
dancing. The man was joyous that someone was
celebrating life in such a grand and uninhibited
manner. As he drew closer, however, it became
apparent that perhaps the figure was not dancing,
but perhaps repeatedly performing some ritual.
8
Approaching the small figure, the man noticed
that it was a child. The girl was methodically
picking up starfish from the shore and tossing
them back into the surf. The man paused for a
moment, puzzled, then asked, Why are you
throwing those starfish?
9
If I leave these starfish on the beach,
she replied, The sun will dry them, and they
will die. So Im throwing them back into the
ocean because I want them to live.
10
The man was quiet for a moment, impressed
with the childs thoughtfulness. Then he
motioned up and down the miles and miles of beach
and said, There must be millions of starfish
along here! How can you possibly expect to make
a difference?
11
The young girl pondered the mans words
for a moment, then she slowly leaned over,
reached down, and carefully picked up another
starfish from the sand. Pulling back, she arched
the starfish gently into the surf.
12
She turned to the man and smiled. You may be
right, she said, But I made a difference for
that one.
