Going up to the board can be more fun when one gets to spin wheels and throw dice, as high school teachers use electronic boards to engage students in mathematics. Erin Mahony, 36, started teaching in Green School at Newberg High School this year and came from Clackamas High School. She views the Smart Board in her classroom as her favorite piece of equipment. Why does she like it so much? It offers “more opportunity for really close interaction with the kids,” she said. “Student engagement is the biggest thing; they’re physically involved with what I’m teaching.”
