I'm a bit worried about sweeping statements about the use of IWBs. =
Evidence suggests that the success of the technology is based upon =
quality of kit/installation, local technical support, software use and =
most important the assessment of teachers' (technical and pedagogical) =
competencies and subsequent bespoke, targeted and continuous =
professional to support this. I suggest looking at the landmark IWB =
research reports by Bridget Somekh (secondary) and Gemma Moss (primary).
=20
I find the negative generalisations a little worrying- as worrying as =
opposite evangelical generalisations. Nationally and internationally it =
seems to be that success or otherwise is predicated on local variables =
as outlined above.
=20
Although Paul has acknowledged that his is a personal rather than an =
organisational opinion it is interesting to read his comment that IWBs =
"are the biggest and most costly mistake UK education has made" when =
signed as Programme Leader - Leading Edge Partnership Programme =
(Partnerships and Performance Networks)
Specialist Schools & Academies Trust.=20
=20
This could be easily be (mis?)interpreted as a policy rather than a =
personal statement. I wonder what the official SSAT stance is (if any)?

Apologies - I should have said my experiences are solely =
secondary-based. I know primary colleagues who have had much more =
positive whiteboard experiences.
=20
During the last 6 years I have had the pleasure of visiting over 300 =
secondary schools (including Becta winners/ICT mark schools through to =
struggling special measures schools) and I think I can still only count =
the interesting whiteboard practice I have seen on one hand. (That has =
been in maths mainly and a bit of D&T/science in case anyone is =
interested).
=20
As an example I walked round a school in the summer term with a =
whiteboard in each of their 80 classrooms. During the tour only four =
were turned on. Three were being used to click through PowerPoints and =
one was being used with some maths software (by the teacher). I find =
this a tragic waste of money. It was a decent school making good =
progress and yet the (good) staff had not found them to be useful enough =
tools to use regularly. The school was well resourced and CPD was well =
planned and had a high priority so that was not the issue.
=20
Why do these schools find it so hard to generate the good practice you =
have seen? (The poor usage level is obvious due to the huge number of =
uncalibrated boards I see)
=20
A lot of the positives often quoted are features of the software as =
opposed to the hardware. There is no debate as to the increased quality =
of the software available - I just feel there are better (dare I say =
more 'interactive') ways of operating it - voting handsets, cordless =
mice, presenter handsets, graphics tablets, tablet PCs (a possible =
solution but not a wide spread one) etc. The usage of voting handsets =
has been the most impressive use of hardware I have seen.
=20
How long do we leave it before we accept the wide-scale whiteboard =
experiment has not worked? Another 10 years? Have we lost some teachers =
from ever using ICT as a result of their whiteboard experiences?
=20
Interesting debate.
Cheers

=20
Paul, I must disagree. =20
=20
With all respect, I fear that you are only seeing what you want to see! =
An interactive table costs about the same as a good IWB and can only be =
seen by half the class at the most. I wonder if you have ever had the =
almost spiritual experience of actually using an IWB with repeated =
classes of children - I have - There is an overwhelming satisfaction in =
seeing the class take over the board (not all at the same time!). Your =
reference to the tablet PC (which I agree is useful) and PowerPoint =
still hints at the 'teacher in charge' scenario.
When I first introduced IWBs in a school some 10 years ago I soon =
discovered that there were a vast number of different ways of using the =
IWB. Perhaps the first is in handwriting recognition combined with =
brainstorming - whereby any number of children can almost scribble their =
contributions on the board, all spontaneously translated into a neat and =
appropriate font and then easily re-arranged and exported for embedding =
into their own work as and when they have access to a PC.
=20
Then, of course, there are so many features such as sequence sorting, =
'developing tray' (even at A-level), use of libraries of symbols eg =
Science or Maths or word+image matching etc.
=20
I fear Paul, that your experiences of IWBs have been soured by poor =
practice, whereas I have been inspired by good practice from all age =
groups. As part of my initial and cautious research I started by =
observing good Primary practice and soon realised that many of the =
initial IWB techniques could be 'matured' to the standards that would =
not insult any student in 5D.
=20
Perhaps my final comment must be that having set up a situation where =
every classroom now has an IWB any teacher can walk into any classroom =
and instantly have their lesson outlines up on the board before the =
class enters and then the fun begins!
=20
I originally wrote this 7-page document some 5 years ago, but I still =
stand by what I said then:

Interesting but still nothing new. 10 years on in the UK classroom and =
still hardly any effective ELECTRONIC whiteboard practice to talk about =
- they are the biggest and most costly mistake UK education has made and =
we need to get away from the mentality that just because a lot of money =
has been spent on them that we need to continue down that path (rough =
pr=E9cis of Chris's reasoning in the video)
=20
The best thing I have seen so far with a whiteboard is take it off the =
wall, put it on a table, twist the projector so it points downwards and =
let people share it (if it allows multi-point access of course)
=20
20th century technology. 19th century teacher-centric pedagogy - one =

=20
Get a =A350 cordless bluetooth keyboard and mouse, step away from the =
front of the classroom and share the power! You won't look back.
(feel free to send me the money you have saved if you want!)

–
There is an overwhelming satisfaction in seeing the class take over the =
board
(not all at the same time!). Your reference to the tablet PC =
(which I
agree is useful) and PowerPoint still hints at the ‘teacher in

<br>
When I first introduced IWBs in a school some 10 years ago I soon =
discovered
that there were a vast number of different ways of using the IWB. =
Perhaps
the first is in handwriting recognition combined with brainstorming =
–
whereby any number of children can almost scribble their contributions =

easily re-arranged and exported for embedding into their own work as and =
