“…But when you teach without anything that would make them see, it becomes very difficult.' These findings are similar to previous research work where it was reported that the visual aspects of the IWB helped learners to understand content, making the teacher's explanations more effective [6,7,9,10,11]. Learners "most commonly associated the IWB with visual ways of learning.…”

“…Others link its popularity with its ability to display a wide variety of information so concepts become more tangible and therefore easier to grasp [8]. Finally it is also argued that an IWB supports a wider range of learning styles, since teachers are able to draw on a variety of different resources to suit the learners' needs [9]. It is interesting to note the different theories underpinning the popularity of multimedia content for IWBs.…”

“…However, on the whole, learners seemed to enjoy the use of IWBs in the classroom [6,7,8] and found them easy to use [6]. Learners also commented that they enjoyed the multimedia content that could be presented using the IWB, finding these lessons more interesting than traditional content [9]. Learners commented that the visual aspect of the IWB together with the verbal comments from their teachers complimented each other and helped them to better understand the content taught to them [6,10].…”

“…Linked to the visual aspect of the IWB, learners also discussed how the ability for the teacher to go back and forth over lesson content, easily repeating sections that learners might have struggled with also helped them to understand new concepts better and made for effective learning [9].…”

Abstract. This paper illustrates how interactive whiteboards (IWBs) have been used to support the dynamic creation, capture and sharing of knowledge in primary and secondary schools in South Africa. It reports on the findings of a feasibility study undertaken by the Eastern Cape Department of Education to determine the perceived benefits and drawbacks of teachers and learners of using IWBs in the classroom. The research highlights how both teachers and learners can critically engage with multiple sources of information to construct their own knowledge, aiding learners in the learning process and helping teachers to scaffold that learning process. The study illustrates that IWBs have the potential to be beneficial in the South Africa classroom by affording teachers and learners a new medium through which they can create, capture and share knowledge.

“…However, early research on the costs and benefits of IWB use tended to focus on the potential of the technology under favorable conditions, as part of targeted initiatives, with little focus on typical use by teachers with varying access to technology, technical support, and professional development experiences [4,5,6].…”

Abstract-Interactive whiteboard (IWB) use has been associated with increased student motivation, engagement, and achievement, though many studies ignore the role of the teacher in effecting those positive changes. The current study followed the practice of 28 high school science teachers as they integrated the IWB into their regular classroom activities. The extent of teachers' adoption and integration fell along a continuum, from the technologically confident "early adopter" to the low-use "resistant adopter." Patterns of use are explored by extracting data from representative teachers' practice. Science-specific benefits of IWB use, barriers to integration, and lessons learned for professional development are discussed.
