Smartboard Basics Workshop:
Walking into a new class can be challenging enough, why does classroom technology have to make it more difficult? If you are new to interactive whiteboards, this session will help introduce you to the technology and familiarize you with their basic use and functions.
Participants will be taken step-by-step through the process of opening and accessing Smartboard programs and get to practice making some of their own activities in Smart Notebook.
Though computer access will be provided, any participants wishing to bring their own laptops are recommended to download the Smart Notebook program at smarttech.com/downloads.
Smartboard Intermediate Workshop:
Do you have an LTO in a class with an interactive whiteboard? You know the basics, but want to learn how to take your lessons to the next level. This workshop is designed to give teachers with some basic knowledge of Smart Notebook tips and examples to make full use of the powerful software. Participants will explore the various functions of the Notebook program, and with examples, start to make their own advanced activities for use in the classroom. Using this software can be a great way to engage students or impress a potential employer, so when it comes to working with an interactive whiteboard, take your skills from 'how?' to 'wow!' today!
Though computer access will be provided, any participants wishing to bring their own laptops are recommended to download the Smart Notebook program at smarttech.com/downloads.
