Andrea Wise, Biology teacher, Providence High School, Charlotte, North Carolina

"The activities are a more interesting and stimulating way for students to practice topics. The animation slides are memorable and add interest, with a strong lasting impression given for physical processes. The product really appeals to the visual learner."

Andrea Wise is a biology teacher at Providence High School in Charlotte, North Carolina. The teachers in her school use Boardworks Science products in their classes on a regular basis, and have been very impressed with the resources since they were purchased in 2010.

Andrea loves the fact that Boardworks resources are customizable and flexible. "We really like to adapt and edit the slides, and integrate the interactive activities and animations with slides we have created ourselves."

Because Boardworks products are ready-prepared and very easy to use, the teachers at Providence High School find the resources hugely time-saving. "The products have assisted staff to communicate concepts in areas where we were short of resources," says Andrea.

Andrea has been very impressed with the interactivity in the resources. "The activities are a more interesting and stimulating way for students to practice topics. The slides make it much easier to refer back and review topics, something we did successfully when learning about enzymes. The animation slides are memorable and add interest, with a strong lasting impression given for physical processes. The product really appeals to the visual learner."
