The findings of the study showed that the smart board is a useful technological material, it facilitates students’ learning and positively affects the students’ attitudes to the subject. It activates the students and attracts the attention of them. It is also seen that teachers’ knowledge about effective use of smart board is limited. They use the smart board as a projector. It is suggested that teachers should be given an in-service training course to teach different methods to use smart board.
