Great Ideas Start on a Whiteboard
Funded Aug 28, 2016
I'm so excited that with your generous support my project to outfit my classroom with essential supplies was funded in only two weeks! I thank you for your financial contribution but also for taking the time to engage with my passion by considering my project. I look forward to informing you how my students are able to succeed because of these valuable supplies.”
With gratitude,
Mr. S.

Students struggle to put to paper ideas for fear of being wrong. Research shows, for example, that some of the gap between the performance of boys and girls on the old SAT can be explained by the hesitancy of girls to guess. But any good teacher will tell you it is by committing yourself to a position you will learn much more from the mistake than by not trying at all. Erasable whiteboards are a low-tech solution to an age old problem. Because the whiteboard can be easily erased with no remnants of the old answer, students become more willing to try something out. Whiteboards also allow students to more easily collaborate within a group and more easier share their results than if they were using standard classroom paper.
