The device is constructed of a suitable material, such as vinyl, which would be compatible with permanent or nonpermanent water or other solvent based ink markers, adhesive-backed notes, and could be transparent or opaque and of any color. Sized similar to a bulletin board or chalkboard and, optionally, a clipboard or other smaller design, the device can come with marking devices, pointers or notepads. The device is mounted using attachment system integral to the device including mating pieces of hook and loop fastening material, temporary, low-tack or permanent, high-tack adhesive. Multiple embodiments of the device can be used simultaneously and in a coordinated fashion, utilizing various sized panels being placed on top or underneath each other, each panel bearing different information or notes.
