· Smartboard · in front of the class in B204

Only the material on the board.
No names, no grades.

. Built, not yet in use The smartboard without students’ names, Built, not yet in use and a PowerPoint or PDF that becomes slides. That needs a converter on the school’s server.

  1. The slide, large. Slide 3: what is the end point? There is nothing on it the class does not need to see.
  2. Next. Slide 4: an indicator helps. As soon as the solution is basic, it turns pink.
  3. Blank screen. The class looks at Mr Bakker again. One tap and the slide is back.

Quiet in the evening.
A parent’s question, you read in the morning.

· Teacher · Mr Bakker, for next week

Your week on one screen.
You write the study guide once.

Who sees what of your work?
Only what belongs to them.

Your students

The homework, the materials you share and the study guide. A grade only when you show it, with your comment. They do not see your lesson plan.

Their parents

The grade with your comment and their own child’s homework. A message from a parent after 18:00 reaches you the next morning at 07:00.

The mentor

Your grades and comments in the class report. If you are a mentor yourself, you get one extra part: your mentor class.

The smartboard never shows students’ names or grades. Anyone who looks at something of a student goes into a log. Back to the day of the whole school
