**//Of what practical use is an Interactive Whiteboard in my classroom?//** Have you ever wished that you could show your entire class some exciting programme, etc. on your computer, and then abandoned the idea when you thought of all those students clamouring for a place around a single computer screen? Worse still if it were an interactive programme where students could engage in some educational game or activity .  The interactive whiteboard is the answer to this dilemma. The large interactive display effectively becomes a large computer that your students can see clearly and have access to. No need to go to the actual computer – the whiteboard becomes your computer . A group of students can even work cooperatively and independently at the Interactive Whiteboard while the teacher works with another group.

It also allows you to gain instantaneous feedback on whether your students have grasped a learning point or not, through an innovative voting tool. In likemanner, instantaneous feedback can be provided to students on their learning.  It also allows techno-phobic teachers to deliver lessons naturally using technology .
