The IWB is the memory of the class

The teacher has the possibility to record all lessons given through the computer. Thus the IWB serves as a class diary for students who have been absent or in case the lesson has not been completed from one lesson to the next. There is no more risk that someone will walk behind and erase the board in between.

The IWB also allows the teacher to prepare several lessons in advance on the software and to record them in order to broadcast them on the day. In the same way, it is an excellent way to rework lessons from one year to the next.

The pedagogical contributions of the interactive board (IWB)

The major advantage of the IWB is that it encourages interactivity between teacher and students. They are curious and stimulated. A major contribution when student concentration can be difficult to find. And if the students pay more attention to the course, the teachers are motivated. The use of this type of technology in the classroom makes you want to invest more in your work. To the right craftsmen, the right tools!

The IWB facilitates learning and teamwork. Everyone can work on the large surface of the interactive whiteboard. With up to 10 simultaneous touchdown points on the IWB, students can work in teams and prepare presentations together.

Why choose a fixed IWB?

• The IWB facilitates collaboration and enables students to make connections through school work.

Indeed, in the acronym IWB we find the notion of interactivity. This is through the children’s desire to go to the board but also through the use of the IWB in group work. The pupil can also illustrate the course himself with tools that make him want to participate. Ask a child the question: he or she will prefer the digital blackboard to the traditional blackboard.

• Familiarizing children with digital technology via the IWB allows them to control the way they use a digital tool

Unlike the teacher, the students have a very intuitive use of the IWB. For them, videos and digital images are natural features they use at home. That said, some do not have this access at home and the IWB helps to bridge this gap while allowing responsible digital use.

• The IWB represents a time saving in the preparation and implementation of courses

The IWB is indeed the memory of the class. It is also the memory of the teacher who can save all his lessons in it in advance, without needing to arrive earlier in the morning to write everything in chalk for example.

• IWB remains an affordable interactive solution

Of all the new technologies, some may present a high short-term cost to a school. Coupled with its video projector, the IWB is a solution that fits perfectly into the budget of small rural schools.

The IWB is the preferred solution for schools.
