Teachers and researchers used an innovative research design developed through the Interactive Education Project. Case studies were carried out in classrooms, focusing on the use of Interactive Whiteboard technology for teaching and learning. The case studies were analysed using different methods and strategies in teaching the English language. The case studies illustrate that the introduction of Interactive Whiteboard (IWB) into the classroom involves much more than the physical installation of the board and software. Teachers are the critical agents in mediating the software, the integration of the software into the subject aims of the lesson and appropriate use of the IWB to promote quality interactions and interactivity.
