The study aimed to find out the effect of employing smart board while teaching mathematics for the eighth grade in the students' achievement in the Directorate of Aqaba Education. To this end, the researcher used the semi-experimental method, and the study tools in the achievement test. The sample of the study consisted of 52 students from the eighth grade in the King Abdullah II School of Excellence, Gulf of Aqaba in Jordan, distributed equally over two groups: a control group and an experimental group. The results showed that there was a statistically significant effect at the level of significance (α = 0.05) for using the smart board in the achievement of the eighth grade students in mathematics. The differences were in favor of the experimental group that taught the educational material using the smart board, compared to the control group, which taught the educational material in the traditional way. The study recommended working on the generalization of the use of the Smart board and its activation in all schools, for all levels of study, and in all subjects, especially mathematics.
