These are the replies from some districts to the Newsday questionnaire regarding the use of new technologies in their classrooms.

Some of the answers are elaborate, and have not been edited or reduced. Some districts did not answer the questions directly.

1. Please list any major technological innovations introduced in the classroom in the past three years. Please give the name and list the use for each item.

Wainscott is a K-3 Primary School. We introduced our first Smart Board into our program this year. The Smart Board is an interactive whiteboard that can be used with touch detection for input. It is part of a system made up of the interactive whiteboard, a computer, a projector and white boarding software called Smart Notebook.

None.
