Training Today: Products and Services (Jan/Feb 2012)

The latest products and services launching in the training industry.

>> Whiteboard Products launched a suite of its environmentally friendly products that will help improve the way businesses in the U.S. and Canada train, present, learn, teach, and brainstorm. The supercharged whiteboard on a roll sticks with static to any flat surface. Users simply unroll the whiteboard, tear off a sheet along the perforation (or roll it out to make a 65-foot-long whiteboard), and place it on the wall. Additional products now available include the Magic Blackboard for colored displays and a Clearboard that can be written on with dry erase markers.

Task Lists Help Get Things Done

The notion of a task list could seem somewhat juvenile, but it is important to consider in terms of getting things done. If the “to-do” is written down in front of you, as a constant reminder of what needs to be accomplished, then you’ll eventually get tired of seeing it or be motivated to complete it.

Trading in the chalk

(One of six sidebars to Oct. 2002 feature article "Teaching with technology.")

Many schools are now trading in the blackboard for an interactive whiteboard.

Consider the Dietrich School District in Idaho. With a grant from the J.A. and Kathryn Albertson Foundation, the school district added media-rich teaching stations to 15 of its classrooms. Each teaching station, which includes video equipment, an Internet-connected computer and a projector, also has a Smart Technologies Smart Board.

Although print speed probably should not be your No. 1 criterion when selecting a printer, a fast inkjet is definitely better than a slow one.

the real costs

Although the retail price of inkjet printers has dropped to affordable levels, it's good to remember that the companies don't make much money by selling the hardware. The industry's bread and butter is in the ink and, to a lesser extent, the paper.
