* This research study discusses the use of interactive boards to engage students with diverse learning styles and those identified with special needs. The study found special needs students and students who exhibited aural and kinesthetic learning styles were more actively engaged in lessons that incorporated the use of interactive boards. The boards allowed for the easy incorporation of color, sound, video, and graphics in lessons. They also offered greater opportunities to physically manipulate data. Students with visual disabilities benefitted from the use of large displays, crisp text, and illustrative diagrams.
