The primary aim of this phenomenographic study is to discover the perceptions of high school students
regarding the concept of “Interactive Whiteboard” through metaphors. Phenomenography, which is a qualitative
research method, was used in the study. The research group of the study consisted of a total of 162 students
studying at the 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th grades of the information technologies department of an Anatolian high
school of commerce. In order to collect the research data, each student in the research group was asked to
complete the gaps in the sentence “Interactive Whiteboard is like…; because…” Content analysis techniques
were employed for the analysis of the data in order to group the metaphors created by the students based on their
common features. As the result of the analysis of the collected data, it was found out that the participants created
41valid metaphors. These metaphors were classified under 6 conceptual categories in terms of their
characteristics. In conclusion, it was determined that the students had highly positive perceptions about
“Interactive Whiteboard”. However, it was observed that some of the students perceived “Interactive
Whiteboard” as an unnecessary device.
