  • Interactivity is obviously the feature most talked about, although there are different ideas as to what this actually means.
  • Armstrong et al. (2005) focus on interaction as the "give and take between pupils and teacher which goes beyond a superficial learning scenario to a stimulating interplay which leads to new formulations and new understanding"
  • A simpler view of interactivity is the manipulation by the learners of the IWB. A

  • There is a clear association of "interactive" with learner use of the IWB;
  • The Department for Education and Skills report (2007) identifies three aspects to interactivity: technological - interacting with the software; physical - going up to the board; and conceptual – using the board to break down and reconstruct ideas and facilitate recognition of the learning process itself
  • The report praises the lessons where whole class teaching was enhanced and where spaces for interactive work, discussion and extended dialogue were opened up by the teacher's use of the IWB.
  • (Glover and Miller, 2001) argue that IWBs have limited value if teachers "fail to appreciate that interactivity requires a new approach to pedagogy" and there may be a tendency for IWBs to be used more as an "interest enhancer than as a new approach to learning" (p.269).

    This article reports on research into learner perceptions of interactive whiteboard (IWB) use in English as a foreign language classes. Students from several language centers in different parts of the world were asked about their opinion of learning in a class where an IWB is used. Responses were segmented, codified and certain categories identified. The results show a general appreciation of the introduction of new technology but suggest there is little in the way of an improved pedagogy being implemented that might immediately justify the investment. It is suggested that (i) there is unevenness in teacher preparation for IWB use, both in terms of techniques and pedagogy; (ii) IWB peripheral devices should not be seen as "peripheral" to classroom practice; (iii) involving students in discussion of the potential of the technology can aid the emergence of appropriate pedagogy which will help to offset the differing levels of teacher experience and training.

  • Smith, Hardman and Higgins (2005) compared lessons with and without IWBs during 2003 and 2004. They concluded that while IWBs are “useful presentational tools… the technology by itself will not bring about fundamental change in the traditional patterns of whole class teaching” (455). They also questioned the efficacy of “extensive top-down staff development” in-service training. This issue is also raised by Armstrong et al. (2005) who suggest that without effective training “it is unlikely that teachers will either be aware of or be able to exploit the potential affordances of IWBs” (467).
