Interactive Whiteboard
What are they?
An interactive whiteboard is an electronic whiteboard writing surface which can capture writing electronically in group presentation situations such as teaching. Interactive whiteboards typically require a computer; however, some newer models have basic whiteboarding functionality present within the interactive whiteboard. The interactive whiteboard is designed to allow interaction with a computer display.

Interactive whiteboards allow users to navigate a computer system by using a stylus (or finger) to open applications, take notes, or perform other computer functions. A special whiteboard tracks movements of the stylus and transmits it back to the computer where it is analyzed and represented on the screen.
