Given the controversies which continue to surround our understanding of how to use the Interactive whiteboard (IWB), I warmly welcome the publication of this important new resource book. It successfully combines theory and practice, drawing on the research while at the same time providing practical insights for language teachers on getting the most out of this powerful tool. The cases studies cover a range of contexts, and crucially inform practitioners on maximising the potential of the IWB, and describe how to use it in communicative ways. -- Pete Sharma, Lecturer in EAP (Pre-sessional courses), Warwick University, UK
