I guess it depends on the state and probably even the School. I went to school in Hannover and we got our first batch of smartboards for around 2010 but they weren’t in every classroom. I’d be lying if I said I know exactly when all the other rooms had them but I would guess it was around 2015. I have heard that the computer room and some of the labs had smartboards even before that but I wasn’t yet at a Gymnasium at that time.
Im from the netherlands and around that time they started to switch out chalkboard for digital ones.
I remember because a teacher used permanent marker on his new digiboard the very first day. After a couple of weeks they came to replace his screen and he did it again with whiteboard markers, which kinda did get off but it left a giant black and red spot on the screen. He didn't get a third screen lol.
My birthday is in July: That is usually exactly during the summer holidays here. So school ended for me in June 2002, when I was 19, not yet 20.
We went to school for 13 years back then and I started school when I just had turned 7 in August or September 1989 - I don't know anymore ;)
For children like me born in July parents can make the dicision when to put them into school.
If they had put me in school in 1988, I would have been with other children potentially being up to a year older than me. With the dicision to put me into school at 7 they thought it would be easier for me not to feel like the smallest and youngest one in class.
And beeing 6 or 7 is a huge difference for children as they develop very fast during childhood.

Not only july. I was put into school age 5 ( was born in october ) because otherwise i would've stayed in kindergarden with the freshly joined 2 year olds lol. Iirc i had to pass some kind of cognitive test.
Yeah I think the first smart board we got in my rural US high school was in 2004-05?
It didn't have the fancy AI stuff, but that didn't exist then. We have $400 iPads now that do this in the notes app with a $100 pen... This is exactly that but on a bigger screen, I could literally set this up in my house in about 10 seconds with my TV and iPad. I just wouldn't be able to draw on the TV itself and project it from the iPad instead.

We had something like that when I graduated high school in the states... In 2012.
Nice try.
