Abstract :
The study examined the extent of utilization of the interactive whiteboard technology (IWT) by Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) lecturers in South–Eastern Universities in Nigeria. Existing literature revealed the importance of the IWT in the pedagogical system in other regions of the world. The study adopted survey research design. The population for the study was 105 TVET lecturers. Structured questionnaire was used for data collection. Three experts validated the instrument. The instrument had a Cronbach alpha reliability co–efficient of 0.78. The study found out that the TVET lecturers slightly possess required skills for the effective use of the IWT. Challenges facing effective use of the technology include unstable power supply and difficulties in learning the manipulation and operational skills. The study recommends the provision of constant power supply in the TVET workshops and laboratory by university authorities to encourage frequent use of the technology.
