The teacher can extend the activities described above to bring pupils into a greater degree of involvement. Technology is developing to support greater involvement with the introduction of voting systems to allow structured interaction and progress monitoring and e-gadget design supports certain forms of this. The use of handheld computers by pupils in Primary Schools has been successful in trials in Wolverhampton and elsewhere and selected e-gadgets have been successfully incorporated into a 'handheld' e-gadget workshop. The e-gadget factory sees a future with interactive whiteboard based e-gadgets being linked to pupil devices that interact directly to support enhanced interaction. - susan tsairi
