Have you ever seen those sleek interactive whiteboards and wished you could have one in your classroom? Well, now you can for a fraction of the cost. Check out researcher Johnny Lee’s Wii hacks on TED Talks. He demonstrates his homemade whiteboard constructed with the Nintendo Wii remote. Here’s a link to Johnny’s blog Procrastineering where you will find updated Wiimote whitboard instructions. With $50 and his instructional videos you could have one in your classroom by the end of the week!
Special thanks to my colleague Lauri for sharing this story with us.

Wow, this is so cool. I had heard about this in the past few days and wasn’t sure what it was about. I could see how you as an artist would like a system like this. I’ll have my father check your blog out. I’m sure he will enjoy it very much. My father is a former Detroit Public School Teacher who was awarded Michigan’s 2007 Hispanic Artist of the Year for his work with his students in the inner city of Detroit. Please check his blog that I’ve been working on and let me know what you think of it.
