 A SMART board is a combination of a simple white board and a computer.  It is touch controlled and works with a computer and a projector.  A SMART board can be used to take notes, brainstorm ideas, save notes, practice problems, show presentations, and much more.

 The first SMART board was introduced in 1991by SMART technologies.  It was the first interactive white board to provide touch control of computer applications  The SMART board started off slow due to slow modems, slow processors, and Microsoft Windows software that was unstable.

 The touch screen connects to your computer and digital projector and shows your computer image.  You can control computer applications directly from the board, write notes with the SMART pens and save your work for later use.

 Write incorrect sentences on the board for students to correct.  Ideas can be brainstormed as a group and can be saved directly from the board to be handed out to students.  Presentations such as PowerPoint can be viewed and notes can be added by students.  Any other basic computer software can be used.  Basically if you can use a computer… you can use a SMART board!
