Teachers' Perspectives on the Use of Interactive Whiteboards in Mathematics to Support Students' Learning
Collins, Fiona
Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia, Paper presented at the Annual Meeting of the Mathematics Education Research Group of Australasia (MERGA) (42nd, Perth, Western Australia, Jun 30-Jul 4, 2019)
This paper reports how twenty six New South Wales public school teachers creatively integrate interactive whiteboards into their mathematics instruction to support students' learning through adopting a variety of digital resources in conjunction with the interactive whiteboard including online applications, educational software and presentation software. The use of online video clips on the interactive whiteboard was perceived to be very beneficial in engaging students in mathematics lessons. Lack of access and time were considered to be the main barriers to maximising the potential of the interactive whiteboard in mathematics education.
