To offer a potential devil's advocate, I have worked with a medical student here at University of Florida who attended the Master's of Biomedical Sciences program at Boston U prior to enrolling in medical school. The Histology course at BU utilized SmartBoards very effectively by her analysis. I do not know if the class was run specifically as a TBL course, but there was a tremendous amount of small group work using multiple SmartBoards around the teaching lab. The student has indicated that the experience was very useful for stimulating learning.

Greetings Steve,
We have large smartboards installed in our main classrooms. They were expensive to purchase, fiddly to set up, and difficult to use effectively. Very few faculty bother with them. They prefer either plain white boards, or the document camera for projecting/recording hardcopy images. For TBL use, there are better and cheaper alternatives. Large post-it boards or handheld white boards are two examples that work well for us.

Greetings from sunny Michigan!
I'm new to the Collaboration and to TBL but have worked in the technology/medical simulation space for some time. I would like to some feedback as to the utility of SmartBoards (or equivalent) in TBL activities. It seems like it would be a nice fit and would allow for groups to share work in real time with the ability to capture electronically. Is this technology used widely in TBL? Thoughts? If you were putting in a new TBL classroom, would you include them?
Thanks in advance!
