I watched this video twice, and honestly I still do not have a good grasp on the technical aspects of how to make your own smart board. But, I love the idea of teachers having access to ways to improve their classrooms with low cost alternatives to the real thing. It seems like many companies do not take into account the limited resources that many schools have access to, and the disservice it does to our students who then do not have access to new technologies. These kids are our future, and as a nation - even as a world - it should be our universal goal to provide them with the best opportunities for success and academic achievement. As a sidenote, I called my husband in to watch this video and he said he could totally help me out!

Thank You!!!! Thank You!!!! Like I stated before, so much of what holds us back seems to be about money. Now I understand that companies cannot simply give everything away for free, and I am not looking to make us a socialist nation :) I simply would love to see a different set of standards when considering education. All children should have the right to a quality, free, and (relatively) equal education - and it seems like the only thing standing in our way is //money//. I really enjoyed this clip, and I did not even realize it concerned a subject that I feel so strongly about.
