The BIC Velleda Whiteboards are specifically designed for individual use in educational settings, and offer a unique opportunity for students to jot down their ideas, demonstrate their understanding, and make quick and easy corrections. The BIC Velleda Whiteboards are the ideal addition to any classroom, regardless of the teaching methodology used.
Measuring 16 x 29 cm, slightly smaller than an A4, the BIC Velleda Whiteboard easily fits on a school desk and is easy to store. The board has an entirely white side for general notes and a squared side, ideal for performing mathematical calculations or for activities that require a more precise alignment.
One of the advantages of the BIC Velleda Whiteboard is that it allows students to quickly correct writing errors without the frustration of crossing out, scratching, and streaks. This is especially useful for children who struggle with writing skills, such as children with dyslexia. The simple erasing process promotes a positive learning experience, and encourages children to learn from their mistakes and try again, rather than focusing on avoiding errors.
In particular, in the context of the 'Explicit Direct Instruction' (EDI) method, as described by John Hollingsworth and Silvia Ybarra and translated into Dutch by Marcel Schmeier, BIC Velleda Whiteboards are highly recommended. In EDI, the use of these whiteboards makes the 'check for understanding' and 'guided practice' steps more effective. Students can write their answers on the BIC Velleda Whiteboard and display them, allowing the teacher to directly check understanding and give immediate feedback. This real-time response encourages active participation, and creates a safe and supportive learning environment.
So, whether you're a teacher using the EDI method, or a parent looking for ways to support learning at home, the BIC Velleda Whiteboard is a must-have educational accessory. With its double-sided design, handy size, and the ability to easily correct writing errors, the BIC Velleda Whiteboard supports the development of confidence and competence in all students.
