Digital whiteboards like the ones made by Smartboard can be very handy in a classroom, but they’re also heavy on the budget, costing well over $2000. If you already have access to an LCD projector, Johnny Chung Lee shows you how to make your own interactive whiteboard for under $60 using a Wii remote and a few inexpensive parts from Radio Shack. Everything you need to know is in this amazing video:
In summary, you’ll need the following materials:
- A bluetooth enabled computer
- An LCD projector
- A Wii remote
- A homemade LED pen
- Johnny Chung Lee’s free software available on this page
I haven’t personally tried this yet, since I’m buried deep in converting our entire school from PCs to Macs, but I hope to try it this summer.
Let me know how it works for you.
