[ED-TECH] SMART Notebook software demonstration

Ed-Tech List Members,

I will be demonstrating the SMART Notebook software on Friday, Feb 7, 2008, 11:30 am – 12:20 pm, in Memorial 203. Registration is now open and limited to 30 people. Lunch will be served. Go to http://129.171.43.14 to register.

SMART Notebook lets you capture what you do on the SMART Sympodium writing tablets in the new classrooms in the Learning Center and Memorial Classroom Building. With this software it is easy to capture all of your notes, scroll back and forth through them, and save them at the end of class. The notes can be uploaded to Blackboard so that students will have an exact copy of what you wrote during class. The notes can use many colors and there is no worry about your marker running dry. You can prepare material in advance, and add to it during class, or just start with a blank page and use it just like a white board.

Interested? Come by next Friday and see this in action. It is very easy to use, and will be added to all the remaining classrooms in the Memorial Classroom Building, and the classrooms in the Residential Colleges this summer.
