Today, a document camera can be a great tool to help students visualize what they are learning. More classrooms are utilizing this technology to enable teachers to present their lessons in a vivid and more effective way.
Viewed as the next “need to have” technology for education, the features of a document camera help students have a better view of the information that the presenter is sharing with the class. Its use brings an end to the days when children pushed and shoved to gain a better view of a teacher-demonstrated science experiment.
Furthermore, a document camera is a great classroom management tool. For example, the teacher can use the document camera to display a kitchen timer while the class is working in groups or independently. By allowing all students to view an item simultaneously, document cameras also have the ability to streamline show-andtell.
The presenter does not have to walk slowly around the room to show everyone his or her treasure.
Document cameras are compatible with scanners, projectors, computers and many other technologies. These projector accessories are also an excellent tool when striving to create a "green" school, with no need for transparencies and the possibility of paperless handouts.
