NAKASHIMA, Rosária Helena Ruiz  and  AMARAL, Sérgio Ferreira do. A linguagem audiovisual da lousa digital interativa no contexto educacional. ETD [online]. 2006, vol.08, n.01, pp.33-48. ISSN 1676-2592.

In this paper we present some information about the digital interactive whiteboard and its use as a tool to introduce the audiovisual language in the educational environment. The digital interactive whiteboard is connected to both a computer and a multimedia projector and it uses the Digital Vision Touch (DViT), which means that the screen is touch-sensitive. By touching with their fingers, both teachers and pupils have access to functionalities that increase the interactivity with the activities worked during the class. We present two pedagogical activities to be used in Science and Portuguese classes, for five- and six-years old pupils. This new technology is the result of the evolution of a new type of communication, which is not grounded solely in the oral and written languages, but is also audiovisual and dynamic, since it allows the student to become not merely a receptor but also a producer of knowledge. Therefore, our schools should be encouraged to use these new technological devices in order to facilitate their job and to promote more interesting and revolutionary classes.
