    (2010) Şahin, Yaşar Güneri; Gözde; Gizem; Orhan N.; yücel
    This study investigated the level of technological tools and interactive whiteboards (IWB) usage in teaching, and the teachers' expectations from these IWB technologies. Furthermore, the most challenging problems with IWB systems that the teachers face were also investigated. A total of 527 primary and high schools teachers were selected randomly from 22 different schools and 5 different cities in Turkey, and a survey was administered to all subjects and 486 (n=486) valid questionnaires were returned for analyzing. The results showed that while 75.3% (366 of 486) of the participants use technological tools such as projection devices, educational software and computers, only 36.6% (178 of 486) use IWB systems in their lectures, and only 27.4% (133/486) of the teachers were active IWB users. In addition, some other useful results were gathered, such as the lack of significant gender difference found in the level of technological tool usage, however, significant difference was found according to number of years of teaching experience. © 2010 IEEE.
