bull IWB for VC in primary EFL

bull little unplanned independent interaction

bull Whyte 2011


critics of the IWB have pointed out that one of its drawbacks is the fact that it can

be easily assimilated into teachersrsquo traditional pedagogical practice thus leading to patterns of technology use that simply

replicate previous practice

changes in pedagogical practice cannot be

imposed hegemonically from above via isolated training sessions and in the absence of ongoing

support in the classroom

[In a collaborative action research] framework

teachers are supported by researchers in a process of structured reflection involving data collection

and analysis with the goals of better understanding teaching and learning in their classrooms and

applying this knowledge to improve teaching efficacy

and student learning

among the mechanisms of agency none is more central or pervasive than peoplersquos beliefs about their capabilities to exercise control over their own level of functioning and over events that affect their lives (Bandura 1993 118)

Self-efficacy beliefs

34

bull most teachers claimed to increase their use of IWB over project and the majority also to allow learners more access

bull all developed or maintained a belief in the role of the IWB in learner participation engagement and motivation

bull most teachers also learned where to look for IWB teaching resources and those who were less confident in creating their own teaching resources also gained confidence here

bull the three teachers who showed greatest confidence with particular IWB tools at the start of the project did not change their self-perception (B D F)

bull all the others gained confidence with most or all of the main tools used


Engagement in online support community

35

bull wide range of engagement and participation across 9 teachers

bull 3 core users engaged participants posted own videos commented on other posts and on range of aspects of IWB-supported language teaching (D F B)

bull 3 peripheral users posted mainly when prompted commented less focused principally on technology or project (A H E)

bull 3 passive users posted only when prompted no comments
