Teaching with a digital tool

At our school Richard-Wagner-Gymnasium Bayreuth we have three interactive whiteboards, which are used in all kinds of lessons. If you want to see an English lesson, in which the teacher and the students made use of that new tool, please watch the movie (QuickTime format).
For more information about the possibilities of interactive whiteboards have a look here.
If you are interested in the question if interactive whiteboards add new qualities and value in education, read the research study by the University of Stockholm.
