Although considerable research related to the use and benefits of interactive whiteboards (IWBs) in teaching and learning is available (Smart Technologies Inc, 2006), there are few empirical studies that consider second language acquisition. Moreover, there is disagreement about the benefit of IWB use for language teaching. For example, Cutrim-Schmid (2008) discussed some of the benefits and problems of a multi media oriented approach in the IWB-based language classroom. However, Clay pole (2010) explained that the IWB is far from indispensable for language teaching, since it is entirely dependent for its success on other factors such as the software, the lesson content, and preparation and planning. Therefore, the purpose of this research was to understand the use of IWBs, their role and problems in English language teaching. Technology is a new initiative in Libyan education (Hamdy, 2007) and requires deep understanding from different perspectives. The data was gathered in two language centers at the two Libyan public Universities. It was conducted using an interruptive epistemology (Cohen, et al 2007) and grounded theory methodology (Denscombe, 2007). Qualitative research instruments were developed, namely classroom observations and semi-structured interviews with teachers. Emergent findings indicate that the use of IWBs is seen as an integral tool of lesson presentation, linguistic development and supports engagement in EFL teaching and learning. The teachers reported that it facilitates the use of authentic materials, saves time, and improves students’ outcomes despite identified technical problems. |
