WelcomeWelcome to IWBNet your one stop portal to obtain direction and

IWBNet is an educational consultancy and teacher professional development

systems wanting to make wise educational use of interactive teaching and
learning programs.
IWBNet employs a network of practicing teachers highly skilled in the use of
interactive whiteboards in the classroom to deliver its high quality face to
face, hands on training nationally. These practicing teachers are acknowledged
by their peers for their contribution to the evolution of IWB literacy in the
classroom
IWBNet uses the networked world to provide all those associated with the
shift to digital media – the teachers, school and system leaders, education
faculties - the leadership and educational vision required to enhance the
quality of teaching and student learning.
IWBNet acts as an independent intermediary between interested parties.
It uses its consultancy work, research, writings, publications, conference
and seminar program, teacher professional development programs and its various
web services to constantly inform, and help lead the way forward.
IWBNet is conscious of the rapid and ever evolving nature of digital media
and its use in schools, and so our mission is to stay in touch with this new and
emerging educational tool and to constantly provide resources and guidance as
each school progresses along its own journey.
IWBNet has positioned itself well over the past 5 years to assist schools to
realise the many benefits of the Commonwealth Government Digital Education
Revolution. In 2008 it is running three strategic professional development
opportunities for teachers and school leaders:
The Fifth National IWB Conference is to be held on 14, 15 and 16 August
2008 at Firbank Grammar School in Melbourne. This is an excellent
opportunity for teachers and school leaders who wish to spend the funds
provided through the initiative on interactive whiteboards to learn about
how IWBs can be used skillfully, proficiently and imaginatively to enhance
teaching and learning in the classroom.
The Second National Leading a Digital School Conference is to be held on
4, 5 and 6 September 2008 at the Novotel Brighton in Sydney. This is a great
opportunity for current and future school leaders to gain the skills and
understanding to lead a digital school - contributing sustainable and
meaningful change to teaching and learning.
This training course is for teachers, particularly primary school
teachers, interested in joining an ever growing group who are
revolutionizing the way in which students learn in their classrooms. Do your
teachers need to develop their IWB skills to provide your students with the
fantastic educational opportunities that IWBs bring to the teaching and
learning process? This IWB training course will provide that support.
