EFFECTIVENESS OF INTERACTIVE SMART BOARD FOR SECONDARY SCHOOL SCIENCE TEACHING

Abstract

The study was conducted to measure the effectiveness of technology i.e., an interactive smart board for an effective learning process. Furthermore, according to Bloom's taxonomy effect of a smart board was measured on the first three levels. The experimental group utilized the Interactive Smart Board, while the control group received traditional instruction. Post-test results revealed a significant difference in learning outcomes, with high-achiever students in the experimental group showing notably higher improvements than their low achiever counterparts. The collected data was analyzed to see the clear findings. The results highlighted that at all three levels i.e., knowledge, comprehension, and application levels the smart board produced highly better results among high achiever students. That’s why the researchers recommended that there should be proper utilization of Interactive Smart Boards in secondary education for better support for low achievers, and professional development for educators, which will produce a better understanding of technology and later on will produce better results in the whole teaching-learning process.
