Frequently asked questions about SMART interactive displays and EdTech solutions
-
What is a SMART Board®?
A SMART Board is an interactive whiteboard designed specifically for education, allowing teachers and students to write, touch, move objects, and collaborate directly on the screen. As the creator of the original SMART Board, SMART Technologies combines industry‑leading hardware, intuitive software, and a connected ecosystem to support real classroom teaching and learning at scale.
-
Why choose a Smart Board for classroom use?
A Smart Board for classroom environments is built for durability, ease of use, and long-term performance. SMART designs its solutions specifically for real classroom conditions, supporting effective teaching, accessibility, and student engagement.
-
What’s the difference between an interactive whiteboard and an interactive display?
An interactive whiteboard traditionally required a projector, while modern interactive displays—also called interactive flat panel displays (IFPDs)—are all‑in‑one touchscreen solutions that include the screen, computing, operating system, and teaching tools in a single device.
SMART’s interactive displays deliver the same collaborative experience as an interactive whiteboard, with improved brightness, reliability, durability, and ease of use.
-
What is an Interactive Flat Panel Display (IFPD)?
An Interactive Flat Panel Display (IFPD) is a large-format touchscreen display used in classrooms to support interactive lessons, collaboration, and digital instruction.
SMART IFPDs combine ultra‑responsive touch technology, integrated operating systems, and classroom-ready software—making them a modern replacement for older projectors and traditional whiteboards.
-
Are SMART Boards and smartboards the same thing?
"Smartboard" is often used as a general term, but SMART Board® is the original, patented technology created by SMART Technologies. Unlike generic smartboards, SMART Boards are built specifically for education and are supported by a fully integrated ecosystem of lesson delivery, device management, and accessibility tools.
-
What interactive displays does SMART offer for classrooms?
SMART offers a full range of interactive displays for education powered by Android OS, including:
- RX Series – Premium interactive smart boards with advanced pens, precision touch, and maximum performance for instructional leadership.
- MX / MX Plus Series – Versatile interactive flat panel displays designed for everyday classroom use and streamlined deployments.
- GX Plus Series – Cost‑effective interactive displays for student engagement at a great value.
Each SMART Board for the classroom is tested for durability, long‑term performance, and daily real‑world use.
-
Is a SMART Board a digital whiteboard?
Yes. A SMART Board functions as a digital whiteboard while offering far more than writing and drawing. Teachers can present multimedia, run apps, annotate live content, mirror devices, save lessons, and collaborate in real time—creating a more flexible and engaging learning environment than a traditional whiteboard.
-
How does SMART's ecosystem support teaching and IT teams?
SMART’s ecosystem goes beyond hardware. It includes:
- iQ OS, purpose‑built for education
- Teaching and learning software like Lumio and SMART Notebook
- IT tools such as SMART Remote Management, Alerts, and Signage
- Seamless integration across SMART hardware and software
This connected ecosystem reduces setup time, simplifies workflows, and helps schools manage interactive displays at scale.
-
Can SMART interactive displays support different teaching styles?
Absolutely. SMART interactive displays are designed to support whole‑class instruction, small‑group collaboration, and independent learning. Multi‑user touch, precision pens, physical‑to‑digital tools, and accessibility features ensure every learner can engage—regardless of grade level or learning style.
-
Are SMART Boards compatible with other classroom technology?
Yes. SMART interactive displays are compatible with common classroom devices, operating systems, and productivity tools. Features like screen sharing, casting, USB‑C connectivity, and cloud-based software make it easy to integrate SMART Boards into existing school technology environments.
-
Why choose SMART interactive displays for schools?
Schools choose SMART because of their:
- Proven reliability and classroom-tested durability
- Purpose-built design for education—not repurposed commercial tech
- Integrated software and hardware ecosystem
