Thanks to Allen for creating this wonderful blog post regarding evaluating multimedia! Here is my comment.
Hello Allen, thank you for sharing your thoughts on the multimedia evaluation model SAMR and your experience with the SMART boards in elementary school! You are lucky to have SMART boards in elementary school which I remember only some of my junior high teachers have used them. SMART boards are indeed more useful and convenient; I remembered my experience with blackboards in my elementary school is terrible (kids playing with the chalk sticks and blackboard erasers, and the dust flying everywhere in the classroom…).
Cheers,
Anna
