The article considers the high-tech whiteboard as a powerful tool for improving instructions. It describes how a class in mathematics is made interactive with the use of a whiteboard mounted on the wall in front of the classroom with its large computerized screens which allow Internet access, video and audio presentations and replayable recorded lessons. Some critics reportedly called the tool an expensive update of the age-old blackboard while many find noteworthy benefits in its features that make teaching and learning more effective and interesting.
