An Activboard is an appropriate teaching tool for junior high classrooms that can increase student motivation and deepen understanding of concepts. The interactive whiteboard allows students to manipulate content independently, adding depth and complexity to lessons. Some benefits of an Activboard include accessible resources from Atomic Learning and Promethean Planet, compatibility with Brainpop for student response systems, and the use of ActivSlates and Activstudentviewer to engage students throughout the classroom.
