The questionnaire was done by 150 science teachers of the secondary school level, for the second term of the academic year 2017/2018.

The result shows that the sample has a high tendency for using smart boards.

However the reality shows that the tendency is average.

It also shows that there are many obstacles that face the usage of the smart board.

Most importantly is the slow internet connection in class rooms.

Also the ence of a specialized program that is affiliated with the syllable is considered one of the main obstacles.

Moreover, there is a few to non training courses to teach the use of the smart board.

Furthermore, there are no clues for the teacher to help him use it.

The result also shows that there is not many differences that lead to statistical indication between the average sample score for every tendency: the usage, the reality of the usage and its obstacles according to these variation (Age - Qualification – Year of Experience).
