Abstract

Over the last ten years, advancement in technology has increased two-fold. Fortunately, this advancement has started to filter down into the school education system. The recent introduction of the Interactive Whiteboard (IWB) in schools has prompted teachers to raise questions, which not only tackle critical doubts, but also initiate interest and curiosity. The most common questions concern the real potential of this tool to enhance learning, motivation, and attention of students. Moreover, this innovative tool has posed a new problem: how to integrate it into the didactic process? This chapter presents an example of a technology-learning environment, based on the social-constructivist approach, where the IWB has been integrated and its effects through research.
