(Glossary/Resource) What's an interactive whiteboard and how is it used in education

 

An interactive whiteboard (IWB) is a large interactive display board shaped like a whiteboard for use in classrooms as a modern replacement to the traditional whiteboard used by teachers. It can be a standalone touchscreen computer used to perform tasks and operations on its own, or it can be a connectable piece of equipment used as a touchpad to control computers from a projector. The first interactive whiteboards were created for use in the workplace.

A device driver is usually installed on the computer to which the whiteboard is connected so that it can function as a Human Input Device (HID), similar to a mouse or other type of hardware like a USB dock.

The majority of IWBs come with software that includes tools and features that are specifically designed to maximize interaction opportunities.
