Eyler IBMYP 6th-8th Science

I put together a quick video tutorial of how to get started with making your own cheap interactive whiteboard (most professional ones cost $1000 – 5000, but you can make your own for $60 – 100!)  These whiteboard are great for instructional use and student interaction (as well as a great tool for digital documentation.) 

I apologize for the lack of great quality to this video…I threw it together during my conference and lunch periods today.  I did not give every little detail in this video…I’ll be providing more of that later when I get a chance.  The first part introduces how to make the special infrared light pen, the second part shows how to get the wii, the bluetooth adapter, and the computer to work together.  Finally, I show you how to calibrate it and use it.  [media=15]

 If you are interested in seeing more, view the previous article about this wii hack from Johnny Lee and watch the videos.
