We have projectors and by the Fall I will have 40 classrooms with
projectors mounted to the ceiling. They get used constantly and there
were many teachers that were upset that they had to wait a year to get
"theirs" Since every classroom has a white board( not a Smartboard,
but a board that is indeed white) They can project and annotate on the
board, where as a TV would have to be mounted in such a way that would
not block the chalkboard/whiteboard. As far as ease of use, you still
have to teach the teachers how to "mirror" their screens to get them
to work. (Unless you are a Apple district) Just my 2cents

1) Anything that is in the world when you're born is normal and
ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works.
2) Anything that's invented between when you're 15 and 35 is new and
exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.
3) Anything invented after you're 35 is again the natural order of
things

I know we have had this discussion before but I can't find it. What
would you rather prefer for classrooms. LCD or Projectors?
We have projectors in all of our middle school classrooms and our
teachers do not use them because they are too hard to use they say.
Please give me some of your opinions on what you think.
Thanks
