The purpose of the presented study is to present research conducted in the conditions of vocational education in the Slovak Republic, aimed to assess the effectiveness of the use of interactive whiteboards for teaching vocational subjects. The main method of research was the pedagogical experiment; another method used was the questionnaire method. The authors’ research findings give evidence that students obtained significantly better results in acquired knowledge and skills when interactive whiteboards were used for teaching than when taught traditionally. The authors also present recommendations for teaching practice in Slovakia.
