Using the Interactive Whiteboard for Effective Teaching and Learning

1. Using the Interactive Whiteboard for Effective Teaching and Learning Birmingham Primary Strategy Team – Diane Pritchard Interactive Whiteboard Session – ICT in Schools – February 2006

2. The Potential of The Interactive Whiteboard • The IWB has the potential to: • Improve the quality of interactions • Improve teacher assessment through the promotion of effective questioning • Enhance modelling • Redress the balance of making resources and planning for teaching • Increase the pace of learning Birmingham Primary Strategy Team – Diane Pritchard Interactive Whiteboard Session – ICT in Schools – February 2006

3. The Potential of the Interactive Whiteboard Speed: access many varied sources of info quickly Capacity: access, store and manipulate a lot of info Automation: support/structure info handling, e.g. in a database Communicability: send/receive/gather info easily and quickly Provisionality: change/revise/re-sort/re-present info quickly and easily Interactivity: decide how to access/sort/present info Non-linearity: decide sequence of accessing/sorting/presenting info Multi-modality: access/present info through a variety of media Birmingham Primary Strategy Team – Diane Pritchard Interactive Whiteboard Session – ICT in Schools – February 2006

20. Literacy and the Interactive Whiteboard Birmingham Primary Strategy Team – Diane Pritchard Interactive Whiteboard Session – ICT in Schools – February 2006

21. Key Areas for Development in Literacy • Key areas where ICT can make a significant • difference to learning & teaching relatively quickly: • Using interactive and multimedia texts as reading material • Exploring/exploiting the editing potential of working on screen • Supporting the planning and structuring of writing • Using digital image and sound to stimulate and extend writing • Exploring spelling Birmingham Primary Strategy Team – Diane Pritchard Interactive Whiteboard Session – ICT in Schools – February 2006

23. The Impact of Sounds and Images • “Interactive whiteboards provide teachers with the facility to use large and colourful text, shapes, data, illustrations and animation. As a result, the images help to bridge the gap between the concrete and abstract and this has a positive impact on children’s learning.” • OfSTED2004 Report: ICT in schools – the impact of government initiatives Birmingham Primary Strategy Team – Diane Pritchard Interactive Whiteboard Session – ICT in Schools – February 2006

29. The Five Stages of Embedding ICT Evolution Reorientation Integration Utilisation Familiarisation Birmingham Primary Strategy Team – Diane Pritchard Interactive Whiteboard Session – ICT in Schools – February 2006

30. Familiarisation • a teacher is becoming increasingly aware of ICT, and may have attended some INSET, but rarely (and often reluctantly) tries to use it in their classroom teaching. Birmingham Primary Strategy Team – Diane Pritchard Interactive Whiteboard Session – ICT in Schools – February 2006

31. Utilisation • a teacher becomes increasingly aware of the benefits of technology, and begins to incorporate it into teaching, often “replacing” former activities with ICT alternatives. This begins to have beneficial effect on T&L, although use remains fragile and the teacher is often set back, for example by technical hitches. Birmingham Primary Strategy Team – Diane Pritchard Interactive Whiteboard Session – ICT in Schools – February 2006

32. Integration • a teacher is becoming increasingly familiar with appropriate use of ICT, and can integrate it into many aspects of their ongoing teaching. T&L begins to be very significantly enhanced. Birmingham Primary Strategy Team – Diane Pritchard Interactive Whiteboard Session – ICT in Schools – February 2006

33. Reorientation • the potential of the ICT is now exploited to move into new areas and approaches that could not easily be replicated by more “traditional” means. T&L begins to be significantly transformed. Birmingham Primary Strategy Team – Diane Pritchard Interactive Whiteboard Session – ICT in Schools – February 2006

34. Evolution • the developmental and CREATIVE possibilities of the ICT are being fully explored. ICT use can grow and develop in response to the needs of the learner and the consequent teaching implications. T&L is very significantly transformed.
