Learn how to use interactive whiteboards more effectively with Mrs Blossom!
Published:  12 March, 2010

Blossom Learning has launched Mrs Blossom’s “Online Applied SMART Board Course” to inspire the greater use of interactive whiteboards in classrooms.

The new eight stage course is taught by a state-of-the-art digital animation character Mrs. Blossom, a ‘superteacher’ that every professional educator will immediately relate to. The programme aims to inspire and educate teachers using SMART Board technology, leading to more creativity in the classroom and maximise returns on hardware investments.

David Weatherhead, Sales and Marketing Manager at Blossom Learning explains;

“This is the world’s first teacher-designed, 100% online training course that brings the SMART Board fully to life. We wanted to create a course that is accessible to every school and every teacher at a reasonable cost. It allows schools to fully maximise their investment in interactive whiteboards without the expensive training costs of face to face alternatives.

“There is so much you can do to bring lessons to life using the SMART Board, and Mrs. Blossom shows how to apply the technology through different stages from beginning to advanced levels. There are downloadable notes for practice exercises, a summary of the chapter and interactive quizzes to complete the level before moving onto the next stage. Teachers can plan their lessons using the interactive whiteboard application ideas to enhance their classes.”

The “Online Applied SMART Board Course” allows teachers to complete training on their schedule, which shouldn’t take any more than two to three weeks. 

The course comes with built-in LMS (Learning Management System) administrative facilities that allow head teachers, LEAs and administrators to allocate courses to individuals and groups and track progress to completion.
