HOW A WHITEBOARD WORKS

How a Whiteboard works.

Do you know how a whiteboard works well today I am going to talk to you about how it does work.

The whiteboard is like paper but it can take whiteboard pens and if you make a mistake than you can rub it out straight away. An interactive whiteboard is a piece of hardware that looks much like a standard whiteboard but it connects to a computer and a projector in the classroom to make a very powerful tool. When connected, the interactive whiteboard becomes a giant, touch-sensitive version of the computer screen. 




Here are some facts about whiteboards.
  1. Who invented the whiteboard? Well Albert stallion invented it.
  2. The first whiteboards were expensive and were made of enamelled steel. Cheaper versions were then produced, including laminated chipboard, high-pressure laminates and steel boards with a white, usually polyester or acrylic, coating.
  3.  Whiteboards became commercially available in the early 1960s, but did not become widely used until 30 years later. Early whiteboards needed to be wiped with a damp cloth and markers had a tendency to leave marks behind, even after erasing the board. Dry-erase markers for whiteboards were invented in 1975.



Finally I have come to my conclusion, I hope you have learnt something new about whiteboards and don't use a vivid on a whiteboard!
