I promised six things teachers should consider if they wish to optimise the IWB in their classrooms: Firstly, it's important that IWBs are optimally positioned within learning spaces.

This is actually quite an interesting question and if we had had time to answer it, I would have said something along these lines: The question acknowledges the direct interest parents have over their children's education, and reminds teachers of the need to keep parents informed of their children's progress.

When I attended school I was required to attend classes in mathematics, English language and literature, science (physics, biology, chemistry), history, geography, music, art, Religious Education, craft and design, home economics, German and French - all just in case I might need them later in life.
