The smart educational environment using the IWB(Interactive White Board) system has been built and developed since e-learning industry was developed significantly in the early 2000's. Basically the IWB system includes the board writing software, and instructors can further increase the training effect by handwriting on the IWB. In this paper we propose new menu layout mechanism of board writing software that only a few menu buttons are displayed based on the frequency of menu usage and the position of menu layout is dynamically moved according to user's writing position. The implementation of our proposed mechanism shows that it is simple and easy to use without user's unnecessary movement. Therefore it is expected to contribute greatly to the development of a future smart education.

By the dissemination of the electronic blackboard systems, smart devices, and digital contents, the Korean government is recently conducting the project that replaces the classic education which utilizes paper textbooks with SMART education using various devices. Also, teachers in the field must be easily able to use SMART education infrastructure for the activation of SMART education. Especially, since the electronic blackboard is expected as a education device which will be most common for teachers, the writing software operated on the this device must supports a simple interface. And the usage of it must be simple. In this paper, we developed the writing software for the electronic blackboard which everyone can use easily. Our writing software supports the basic writing function, the human gesture recognition function which recognizes the user gesture and performs works corresponding with that gesture, and the automatic button alignment function based on the frequency of the usages.
