>> 2. I've experimented with Wii interactive boards (built my own infrared pen from a whiteboard marker, for example, and I have several more spare parts around for building several more). I'm interested in what works well for you with the Wii controller. <<
I tried this out a bit last year and found it a bit glitchy. I now use a Smart Airliner Slate quite extensively and love it. BTW, its sold by SmartTech, but its really a Wacom Graphire 6x8 PC tablet. I have used it with Smart Notebook in windows. However, I do not like Smart Notebook for Linux, so I have used it with FLOSS and FWOSS too! Sorry, FLOSS = Free Linux Open Source Software and FWOSS is Free Windows Open Source Software. For instance, instead of Smart Notebook to write notes with my tablet's pen I use Xournal (windows and linux) which exports to pdf. Also, imstead of Smart Recorder to make desktop recordings of my class, I use http://screencast-o-matic.com (internet app I use in windows and linux with Chrome or Firefox). I have been blogging about all this at http://calcpage.tripod.com so please surf on over if you want to see more about teaching with technology! HTH, A.
