Tag: IWB software
Whiteboarding software used on interactive whiteboards (IWB’s), smartboards, interactive displays, or in fact with any interactive device such as a tablet PC. This software permits whiteboarding: the free visual organisation of annotations, drawings, text, images, videos etc on a virtual canvas. Pages are collected into books, making it easy to move items and ideas from one page to another. IWB software is therefore a very strong productivity tool relevant wherever people work in groups around shared visual displays..
