Buckinghamshire Area Whiteboard Network (BAWN) and Embedding ICT in Teaching & Learning

Buckinghamshire Area Whiteboard Network (BAWN)

The Buckinghamshire Area Whiteboard Network (BAWN) was set up in September 2004 by Primary Consultant Hazel Hughes to support learning and teaching using an interactive whiteboard.

There have been termly user group meetings for 3 years and this cycle was completed in Summer 2007. The twilight meetings were attended by hundreds of teachers to explore ideas and resources and share best practice in exploiting the potential of the Interactive whiteboard for teaching and learning.

In addition two Primary Conferences have been held to demonstrate example activities and lessons:

Embedding ICT (Primary Conference June 2005) celebrated Learning and Teaching using ICT with a week long programme of example lessons and activities using a wide range of technology. 

Embedding ICT returned in June 2006 with a new programme of exciting lesson demonstrations from volunteer teachers across the County

BAWN is here to promote the effective use of interactive whiteboards. You are welcome to explore this site and download sample resources from our meetings and training events.
