         3 . The apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to adjust a transparency of an area, of a background image provided by the electronic blackboard function, that overlaps the at least one area of the screen on which the received image is output, to generate a background screen in which the background image of which the transparency is adjusted and the received image are synthesized, and to provide the generated background screen on the entire area of the screen. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the electronic blackboard function includes at least one of a handwriting input function, an editing function, a video play function, and a function of storing a screen where handwriting is input. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the processor is further configured to, in response to the image received from the at least one input source being output on the at least one area of the screen, inactivate a video play function that is previously activated on the screen. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus as claimed in  claim 4 , wherein the processor is further configured to, in response to the image received from the at least one input source including an audio signal, inactivate a video play function that is previously activated on the screen. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to output, on an area of the screen via the display, a menu for controlling the at least one input source. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to output, via the display, the image received from the at least one input source in a form of at least one of Picture In Picture (PIP) and Picture By Picture (PBP). 
     
     
         9 . The apparatus as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to output, via the display, a first image received from a first input source on at least one area of the screen, and a second image received from a second input source on a remaining area of the screen. 
     
     
         10 . A controlling method of a display apparatus, the method comprising:
 receiving an image from at least one input source;   outputting the received image on at least one area of a screen providing an electronic blackboard function; and   performing the electronic blackboard function with respect to an entire area of the screen.   
     
     
         11 . The method as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein the outputting comprises:
 outputting a background image provided by the electronic blackboard function on the entire area of the screen;   adjusting a transparency of at least one area of the background image that overlaps the at least one area of the screen on which the received image is output; and   providing the background image of which the transparency is adjusted.   
     
     
         12 . The method as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein the outputting comprises:
 adjusting a transparency of an area, of a background image provided by the electronic blackboard function, that overlaps the at least one area of the screen on which the received image is output;   generating a background screen in which the background image of which the transparency is adjusted and the received image are synthesized; and   providing the generated background screen on the entire area of the screen.   
     
     
         13 . The method as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein the electronic blackboard function includes at least one of a handwriting input function, an editing function, a video play function, and a function of storing a screen where handwriting is input. 
     
     
         14 . The method as claimed in  claim 13 , further comprising:
 in response to the image received from the at least one input source being output on the at least one area of the screen, inactivating a video play function that is previously activated on the screen.   
     
     
         15 . The method as claimed in  claim 14 , wherein the inactivating comprises, in response to the image received from the at least one input source including an audio signal, inactivating the video play function that is previously activated on the screen. 
     
     
         16 . The method as claimed in  claim 10 , further comprising:
 outputting, on an area of the screen, a menu for controlling the at least one input source.   
     
     
         17 . The method as claimed in  claim 10 , wherein the outputting comprises outputting the image received from the at least one input source in a form of at least one of Picture In Picture (PIP) and Picture By Picture (PBP).
