Interactive White Board


We have an interactive white board in our classroom.

What is an IWB?

An IWB is a touch-sensitive projection screen that allows you to control a computer directly, by touching the board rather than using a keyboard or mouse, although these can still be used. IWBs require a computer, a projector and the whiteboard itself. You can use an electronic 'pen' or 'wand' to activate elements on whatever you have projected on the IWB (e.g. Internet pages, files, software) and transmit to the computer.
