title = "Interactive white boards in Portuguese primary schools: The teachers' view",
abstract = "Focusing on the use of Interactive Whiteboards (I WBs) in primary schools in Oeiras municipality, this article presents primary teachers' views, from their experience, on the implementation of this innovation as a resource for the teaching and learning processes. IWBs have been recently launched in the framework of a major program aiming the technological modernization of Portuguese schools, in order to promote the use of ICT in teaching and learning, as well as in school management. Findings show that teachers are enthusiastic about Interactive White Boards because they really believe their pupils learn better and in a more joyful way. However, they draw attention to the need of training in order to fully exploit the potential of this resource.",
