INTERACTIVE WHITEBOARDS

Points of view, advantages, disadvantages TEACHERS VS STUDENTS

Teachers Students

Entry of technology into the classroom is not sufficient to raise the level of interactivity in the class or to adopt a new pedagogy

Greater motivation to demonstrate their capability and their knowledge in the operation of the various functions of the board

Lack of digital learning materials and amount of time needed to prepare lesson plans are the primary difficulties

The use of the boards adds a type of “theatrical tension” in the class and creates a more attractive learning environment

IWB allows theachers to prepare comprehensible lesson plans with a variety of creative options

It seems that IWBs positively influenced students’ ability to understand complex concepts, for example, in math and science

They are fun, interactive, intuitive and easy to use

The classes are more interactive and it is easier to integrate into them

The technology of the IWB in the smart classroom, which is being integrated in various places in the world, carries the hope for meaningful pedagogical change in traditional classroom learning
