TECHNOLOGY IN EDUCATION: INNOVATION VS. USE
WARDAH ALAMRI, ANNE PORTER
Abstract
This paper will explore through both self-reflection and a critical evaluation the use of the Interactive Whiteboard technology (IWB) within the setting of primary school science and mathematics education. It will explore the way in which we have engaged with the use of IWB in the classroom, as well as broader responses to it from the educational community. Finally, a critical evaluation of the ways in which the technology can be implemented in the class, and the consequences of that technology, will be discussed.
Keywords
