TY - JOUR AU - Dawson, Phillip PY - 2010/06/18 Y2 - 2024/03/29 TI - Networked interactive whiteboards: Rationale, affordances and new pedagogies for regional Australian higher education JF - Australasian Journal of Educational Technology JA - AJET VL - 26 IS - 4 SE - Articles DO - 10.14742/ajet.1070 UR - https://ajet.org.au/index.php/AJET/article/view/1070 SP - AB - <span>This article presents an argument for the use of networked interactive whiteboards (NIWBs) in regional Australian higher education and identifies new pedagogies for this context. Most Australian universities operate multiple campuses, and many use video conference facilities to deliver courses across these sites. For students at remote video conference sites, their classroom experience is often one of isolation and limited student to student contact. In this article, NIWBs are proposed as a tool to enhance this mode of delivery and exploratory research into the additional affordances they provide is presented. By using networking with IWBs, annotation and gesture can be shared across distances. Emerging possibilities from the integration of NIWBs with video conference, web conference and lecture capture systems are also explored. Three new pedagogies for regional Australian higher education are proposed based on these new capabilities.</span> ER -
