It allows students to interact with lessons by drawing and moving objects on the board. Smartboards provide an engaging learning environment and flexible lessons while improving student learning. However, they are expensive to install, maintain, and require teacher training. Smartboards were invented in 1991 but weren't widely used in classrooms until the late 1990s/2000s due to costs.
