Welcome to a new year where Technology and Mathematics will lead us to SUCCESS!!!


This is Mr. Anzola's wiki. I currently teach Mathematics at East Lee Middle School. Please check my fusion pages at My Math Classes Certainly, you will find lots of resources I use to enhance my teaching on a daily basis.


One of my favorite resources is the Elmo document camera.

Document cameras are typically used in classrooms or scientific presentations and connected to video projectors. They replaced overhead projectors, which were formerly used for this purpose. Most document cameras can also send a video signal to a computer via USB cable. More commonly these days document cameras will also be connected to an interactive whiteboard (like a Smartboard, Activboard or other brands)instead of a standard screen. (Source: wikipedia.org)


But this one is maybe the one I like the most: the Smart Board. Not only students enjoy their learning but they also interact with the lesson itself. This tools makes the teaching/learning process more dynamic and significant.

The SMART Board is a large whiteboard that uses touch technology for detecting user input (e.g. scrolling interaction) that are equivalent to normal PC input devices, such as mice or keyboards. A projector is used to display a computer's video output onto the whiteboard, which then acts as a huge touchscreen. The SMART Board usually comes with 4 digital writing utensils that use digital ink replacing the traditional whiteboard markers. The digital ink works by using an active digitizer that controls the PC input information for writing capabilities such as drawing or handwriting. (Source: wikipedia.org)
