Interactive Whiteboards and Learning: A Review of Classroom Case Studies and Research Literature
http://dewey.uab.es/pmarques/pdigital/es/docs/Research%20White%20Paper.pdf
(SMART Technologies Inc. , Apr 2004)
This white paper brings together research and case study observations from the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia. This discusses the many ways that interactive whiteboards impact learning. From the available body of research, several themes are evident, including the positive effect they have on student engagement, motivation, ability to encompass a variety of learning styles, and their ability to enhance student retention and review processes. In addition to student learning, observations also indicate that designing lessons around interactive whiteboards can help educators streamline their preparations and be more efficient in their ICT integration. 18p.

Fostering Classroom Engagement with Electronic Whiteboards, Tablet PCs, and DyKnow
http://www.educause.edu/Browse/705&ITEM_ID=207
Berque, David
(EduCause, 2004)
This describes a pilot project at DePauw University that incorporates pen-based computers and supporting software. According to the author, in an ideal scenario, the instructor uses the electronic whiteboard to introduce new material to the class while students take additional notes alongside the instructor's content. Then the instructor asks the students to interact with the material by sketching answers to problems that are related to this material. The instructor then uses the system to share some or all of the students' answers with the class, respond to questions about these answers, offer alternatives, and determine if the class is ready for new material, in which case the cycle repeats. At the end of the class, each student's electronic notebook can be printed or saved electronically for later study. Sections of the electronic notebook can optionally be replayed stroke-by-stroke, allowing a student to review how a complex diagram evolved.

Interactivity and the Digital Whiteboard: Weaving the Fabric of Learning.
Haldane, Maureen
Learning, Media and Technology; v32 n3 , p257-270 ; Sep 2007
This article presents the interactive whiteboard as a unique teaching and learning medium and explores the distinctive pedagogy that is emerging as its functionality continues to be exploited by increasing numbers of teachers. It draws on Kozma's studies of the characteristics of other learning media and how these define pedagogic opportunities to benefit individual learners. His analytical approach is extrapolated into the context of a technology-enhanced whole group teaching and learning environment. Interactivity between teachers, learners and the medium of the digital whiteboard provides the focus for analysis of learning and teaching within this emergent learning environment. The process of learner's engagement with the medium is explored from the perspectives of both pupils and teachers, drawing on lesson observations and data elicited through interviews.

Teaching and Learning with an Interactive Whiteboard: A Teacher's Journey.
Hodge, Sue; Anderson, Bill
Learning, Media and Technology; v32 n3 , p271-282 ; Sep 2007
A self-study methodology is used to explore the impact of introducing interactive whiteboard technology to a primary school classroom. Several key insights, described as "nodal moments", provided the impetus for the teacher to review her practice, reconsider her students' learning approaches and explore the relationship between the introduction of a new technology and the teaching and learning that was occurring in her classroom. In particular, she considers the nature of engagement and the ways in which the technology initially moved her away from an active pedagogy. [Authors' abstract]

The Features of Interactive Whiteboards and Their Influence on Learning.
Kennewell, Steve; Beauchamp, Gary
Learning, Media and Technology; v32 n3 , p227-241 ; Sep 2007
In a small-scale study of Information and Communication Technology (ICT)-rich primary school, interactive whiteboards (IWBs) were found to be the predominant ICT tools used by teachers. The study sought to identify how the teachers used features of ICT to enhance learning, based on a list of ICT's functions published for teacher education programmes. This article reports the findings of the analysis, and exemplifies a use of the taxonomy in comparing practice across subjects. It suggests that this focus on ICT's features may be valuable for both future research on the impact of ICT on learning and the design of new ICT resources. [Authors' abstract]

Beyond PowerPoint: Building a New Classroom Presenter
http://www.campustechnology.com/
Campus Technology; 2007
The idea behind Classroom Presenter is simple: support writing on top of slides by using the Tablet PC as the instructor device. When lecturing using Classroom Presenter the instructor writes on top of images of the slides. These images can either be projected directly from the Tablet PC, or can be shown from a second machine that is networked to the first. An advantage of the latter configuration is that the instructor can be untethered from the projector, and lecture while holding the Tablet PC. The networked version also lends itself to use in distance courses.

School Blackboards Are Turning White and Interactive
Dash, Eric
New York Times; , Section B, p9 ; Dec 08, 2004
A growing number of teachers have all but chucked away their chalk for an expensive computer touch screen they can write on electronically. It is called an interactive whiteboard, and in some school districts across the country, it is quietly replacing the blackboard and overhead projector as the primary method teachers use to present their lessons. At upward of $3,000 to buy and install each unit, the interactive whiteboard can cost as much as a set of textbooks - and there are often training expenses on top of that. As a result, they are found mainly in small laboratory schools and affluent suburban districts. As prices fall and technology budgets swell, however, the interactive whiteboard is likely to spread.
