SMARTBoard: A web based version of the SMART Notebook software

26 Oct

Quick overview: A web based version of the SMART Notebook software. Now you or your students can open Notebook lessons on ANY computer with a web browser and an Internet connection!

How can this be used in the classroom: The SMART Express website (express.smarttech.com) is a simplified on-line version of the SMART Notebook software. It’s similar to the SMART Notebook software that you are already familiar with, but it can be accessed on any computer with a web browser. You can use it to open previously created SMART Notebook lessons, or even create simple new ones. This site works great when you want your students to open up a copy of your lesson on their computers at home or if you need to have access to the SMART Notebook software in a pinch. That all being said, please keep in mind that the SMART Express website is not meant to replace the SMART Notebook software you already have installed on your school or home computer. Currently, many features and tools are missing from the SMART Express website when compared to the SMART Notebook software. Regardless, it’s still worth checking out!

Legal: An added bonus is that the SMART Express website can be used on other products (Tablet PCs, other Interactive Whiteboards, touch enabled projection systems, etc..) that you are not normally allowed to use the SMART Notebook software on. Please read this official PDF document for more information. (Source: ISTE 2010 Conference)
