To get a total school community, the students, teachers and parents, to embrace and embed the use of interactive whiteboards in all classes at all levels is an immensely challenging task.

At the moment relatively few schools globally have achieved that take up.

Few as yet are beginning to make use of digital teaching hubs.

The advice in this section is designed to assist schools and education authorities achieve the successful whole of school take up and the associated move to a predominantly digital mode of teaching.

Much fuller advice can be found in IWBNet's recently released School Leaders IWB Guide and/or by undertaking the Developing the IWB Project Manager training program.

Also by participating in IWBNet's Educational Consultancy Services and School Leadership Development programs, for a small fee, the IWBNet team can advise you on your intended school implementation plan and strategy.

The section also begins to address the potential downside of school authorities not providing their students an appropriately rich e-learning environment and the ease of heightening the Digital Divide. The Stellanbosch Declaration of July 2005 succinctly addresses that dilemma.
