Recently technology-enhanced applications have become an increasingly important component of education. There is no doubt that the use of technology in education has yielded improvements in learners’ achievement. Interactive whiteboard, regarded as one of the most effective educational tool, has the potential to revolutionize classroom instruction. Moreover, interactive whiteboard supports classroom management through motivating learners to participate in classroom activities. The use of interactive whiteboard enhances learners’ engagement in the classroom which facilitates classroom management. This study focuses on the impacts interactive whiteboard makes on classroom management. A questionnaire including 100 participants was conducted and the study found that the use of interactive whiteboard in the classroom largely influences classroom management.
