dry erase board

Reusable writing panel

A dry erase board is a smooth, glossy surface—typically white—designed for writing with erasable markers.

Unlike chalkboards, the marks wipe away cleanly with a cloth or eraser.

Standard in classrooms, offices, and meeting rooms for temporary notes, brainstorming, and presentations: Let me sketch this out on the dry erase board.

Also called a whiteboard.
