The Screen Machine - with Nintendo Wii support The Screen Machine is a magnifier and annotation tool for interactive whiteboards. It should work with all whiteboards. It sits discretely on top of other applications, such as Powerpoint, as a small button. When pressed, a set of additional buttons appear allowing any part of the screen to be magnified by any ratio. Other buttons allow annotations to the magnified image, either colored arrows or pen strokes. Useful for highlighting features of common applications that are otherwise difficult to see -too small or at the bottom of the screen. |

Interactive Hangman This is a simple but effective starter for any subject. Any phrase can be typed in, the students then guess each letter, if correct the letter is revealed and they get a round of applause. The program makes special use of the interactive whiteboard with an on-screen keyboard that can be re-positioned. The students can come to the front of the class to press the letters. The program can be used on a regular whiteboard, the teacher needs to press the letters on a keyboard. This download is a Microsoft setup file. The program itself is an executable. |
