Abstract

This study investigates the current situations and Interactive Whiteboard (IWB) use in instructional settings by means of a literature review. It provides comprehensive information about what IWBs are, which kinds of features they have, how they can be used to promote the learners’ understanding. It is also crucial to unveil the pros and cons of IWBs explicitly. In order to more effective usage, especially disadvantages of IWB should be well analyzed and then removed to be able to find any prospective solution. The ways of using IWBs are an important issue that needs to be delved. Consequently, this study, which is going to be a first stage of a long-term project, focuses on which ways teachers utilize or should utilize IWBs in their courses. Therefore, it will enable researchers both to design interactive training packages for teachers and to find out the effectiveness regarding learning and interaction for students for latter studies.
