A SMART Board is an interactive whiteboard connected to a computer that allows users to deliver dynamic and interactive lessons and meetings, navigate the Internet, write notes in digital ink, and save work – all with the simple touch of a finger.
Supported by powerful Netbook software that allows users to create various presentations, activities and games, SMART Board technology is quickly gaining popularity among teachers and students alike.
At first a bit intimidating, a SMART Board can provide a wide variety of presenting, teaching and learning tools, is easy to use, and most importantly can help educators save time and resources.
