The Lightboard: Is it the Next Generation of Content Delivery?

Synopsis

The lightboard is a new and innovative teaching tool which consists of a large pane of glass which is edge-lit with LED lights. Using standard whiteboard markers, the glass can be drawn on and this lighting causes the text/images to glow in front of the presenter. This presentation describes research undertaken to see if the lightboard was an effective teaching tool for first-year nursing students. Results from this study were overwhelmingly positive, with the majority of students reporting that the use of the lightboard for content delivery was innovative, engaging and enjoyable. Critically, students felt more confident in their understanding of learning material delivered using the lightboard.
