The interactive board - an indispensable device in upper secondary education

Abstract

In the face of dynamic social transformations and the lives of modern children and young people, the school should use modern educational technologies to a greater extent than ever before. One of the great opportunities to increase the attractiveness of the school for students is to use, for example, an interactive board that offers greater opportunities for interactive lessons. Children and young people are living in the world of multimedia, which have taught them to demand surprises and new ways of presenting information at an ever faster pace; therefore, they have different expectations from their teachers than previous generations. To use modern technologies in lessons, it is necessary to prepare and motivate teachers. The article presents the educational values of this type of teaching aid, and explores their use by teachers in upper secondary school.
