5 Reasons Why Your School Needs Interactive Whiteboards

ByWaltz Business Solutions November 21, 2022August 31, 2023

Interactive whiteboards, also known as smart boards, enhance the learning experience for students while simplifying the lives of educators. Collaborative activities, file sharing, presentations, educational software utilization, and online resource access are all seamlessly integrated at the front of the classroom, encouraging participation from all. The dynamic nature of these “smart” boards boosts student enthusiasm for learning.

Here are five compelling reasons why your school can greatly benefit from incorporating interactive whiteboards:

Elevate Student Engagement

In today’s digital era, students are well-acquainted with interactive technology. Interacting with technology early on has been shown to enhance their learning capabilities. Interactive whiteboards (IWB) significantly elevate student engagement, foster peer collaboration, and improve information retention from lessons. Teachers can craft captivating lessons by typing or writing on the screen, with the added flexibility to emphasize, encircle, or zoom in on critical points.

Furthermore, educators can seamlessly share multimedia content such as web pages, images, videos, and presentations. Smart boards can also be divided into smaller sections, accommodating multiple students working simultaneously.

Cater to Diverse Learning Styles

Each student possesses a unique learning style, making interactive whiteboards suitable for various preferences. Visual learners benefit from the high-definition display, ensuring clear visibility of the content. Kinesthetic learners can actively participate by writing on the board using a stylus or their finger. Auditory learners can engage with multimedia content presented before them.

Teachers can leverage interactive whiteboards to teach small groups aligned with specific learning styles, both during one-on-one sessions and for the entire class.

Develop, Preserve, and Share Lessons

The era of creating physical packets for absent students has evolved. Interactive whiteboards empower educators to capture screenshots of lesson plans, save them, and distribute them to the entire class and fellow teachers if necessary.

The possibilities for content creation are boundless—teachers can save notes, allowing seamless continuation, and generate materials for students to review during absences. This is particularly advantageous for students who need to catch up without the stress of keeping pace during lessons.

Students can conveniently refer to lessons whenever they have a spare moment, eliminating the worry of missing crucial information.

Setting up an interactive whiteboard at the beginning of the day is effortless. Turning it on initiates the lesson, and at day’s end, teachers can power down the board without dedicating extra time to erasing, cleaning, or duplicating lesson materials.

Classroom Flexibility

Whether students are attending classes in person or remotely, interactive whiteboards facilitate the inclusion of all students through video-conferencing technology. With an IWB, there’s no need to set up a separate camera—the board itself serves as the central platform.

Remote learners can observe the teacher’s actions and engage with their peers, fostering a cohesive learning environment. Beyond enabling hybrid learning, interactive whiteboards actively encourage it.

Empowering Student Achievement

Research indicates that students with access to technology like “smart boards” consistently outperform their peers on standardized tests. The distinctive aspect of “smart boards” lies in the teacher’s ability to employ visual aids, screen designs, illustrations, and symbols to enhance learning.

These tools contribute to lasting comprehension and retention for students. Considering the myriad ways interactive whiteboards enhance the learning journey, investing in them is a prudent choice.

In essence, investing in your classrooms translates to an investment in both your educators and students, ultimately shaping a more prosperous educational experience.
