This video was developed for Smart Technologies by Toronto’s Sharpe Blackmore Euro RSCG. It’s part of the brand’s first global mass market campaign ever, ‘Love of Learning,’ on which Sharpe Blackmore is the lead agency. It extols the virtues of the company’s interactive whiteboards while celebrating the important role teachers can play. This particular video shows how the whiteboards can create a rich learning environment, making classrooms a magical place. Where were they when we were kids? They’ve effectively killed the punishment factor of writing things repeatedly on the chalkboard after school. It doesn’t work when you can copy and paste.
