First things first....what is interactive whiteboard (IWB)... it is an instructional tool that allows computor images to be displayed onto a board by the use of a digital projector. The cool thing about IWB is that the instructor can manipulate the elements on the board with his FINGER....who needs a mouse?? ....pffft not me.
This powerfull tool allow interactivity and colloboration in classrooms and add a wide range of learning oppertunities.
While some learners absorb information efficiently through spoken word, others are visual learners. This will give people the oppertunity to absorb info in multiple formats.
While notes can be saved and printed, students do not have to write things down. Which allows them to participate in the learning session.
Using IWB in natural sciences will be buckets of fun. While students needed alot of imagination and lenghty verbal explanations to understand concept like cell funtions, they can now literally look inside a kidney, take it apart, magnify its cross sections and explore other body parts.... all thanks to IWB.
