The visualise was easily set up and then plugged into the
SMARTBOARD. The angled head allowed the camera to display a close
up of a coin. Using the zoom lens and auto focus ( via the remote
control on the SMARTBOARD!) the number on the coin could easily be
shown. This helped the pupils to see and differentiate between the
coins we use. It is always hard to show real coins due to their size so
the visualise was a wonderful tool to display them. A close up shot of
each coin was presented and described to the class. Our
SMARTBOARD was connected to the visualiser at the same time, this
enabled me to annotate the display and emphasise the numerical value
of the coin. The relevant worksheet I had created was also displayed to
model the working task of the day. The lesson was a success with some
good results and I will be using it every day to show the activity for the
day as well as sharing the children’s ideas and work during the plenary.
The benefits of the Visualiser to teaching & learning:
• Close up display of the coins value
• Easy to set up and use
• All children easily involved in the input of the lesson
• Large scale learning
• Being able to annotate the picture via the SMARTBOARD
