SMART BOARD MATH

**Group Members:** Joani Cantrell Casey Goulette Danielle Weare **Presentation Date:** October 5, 2010

Here is a slide from our lesson we adapted from Notebook 10. You would have to download Notebook 10 to be able to access the lesson:  A. What is a SMART Board? A SmartBoard is an interactive white board built by SMART Technologies in 1991. The SMART Board, also known as an interactive whiteboard, is a large interactive surface that uses a touch sensitive system to control a computer; similar to what a computer mouse would do. A projector is used to show the computer's screen on the SMART Board, creating a large touchscreen. A SMART Board uses digital pens with digital ink as the computer input for different writing capabilities, such as handwriting or drawing, just as a traditional whiteboard would use dry erase markers for writing or drawing on the whiteboard. As of today, more than 1.7 million interactive SMART Boards are being used across the globe in: Education, Military, Business and Government. **Video** media type="youtube" key="0U05WeXPGlk?fs=1" height="385" width="640"

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">3. Review basic SMART Board operations. The computer sends the image to the projector. The projector then portrays the image onto the touch sensitive whiteboard. Now you can use your finger, or a tray tool, to do almost everything you can do on the computer. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">4. Review basic SMART Notebook software. This software is designed to assist you in creating interactive and collaborative presentations. It allows you to draw or write on the whiteboard, attach documents, and hyperlinks to presentations. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">5. Make sure you SMART Board and your Computer are connected so you don't have any issues. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">5. Practice using the SMART Board. It is very strongly suggested that you practice using SMART Board and SMART Notebook before using it in front of an audience.

How to Create Your Own: <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">You can use SMART Board for all kinds of different lessons in a variety of ways!
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">You can make your own powerpoint and use the projector to make it appear on the SMART Board.
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">You can make your own lesson by using blank pages and saving them as you go:
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Click on the blank page to the left in SMART Notebook 10 type/ insert whatever you like.
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">When you are finished right click the page and click insert page.
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">You can continue to do this until you are finished.
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">This makes it easier because you can have all of the pages waiting until you are ready to pull them up to begin using them in class.
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Many people begin using SMART Board by using lesson plans already made in Notebook 10 and designated for teachers to share by doing the following:
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">In the tool bar on the left side of the screen click on the tab that looks like a portrait
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">After doing that click on the link that has an icon of a World, and says, "SMART Exchange"
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">When the next box appears click on the link that says, "Standard-Correlated Lessons"
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">After you do this an Internet browser will pop up
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Insert Arizona Academic Standards from the Standard drop down box
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Enter yours designated grade level in the grade drop down box
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Scroll down to Mathematics in the Subject drop down box
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Click on the view button and wait for lessons to load
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Any lesson that says "View Resources" means that there is a lesson plan available for use
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">If any lesson plan you click on says "Use Senteo" means that you have to have a senteo, which is a hand held clicker.
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">If you do not have access to a senteo, you continue to scroll down through the resources you will find lesson plans that do not need them.

<span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">Any and all of these lessons can be used! They were made by teachers, for teachers, just make sure you give credit where it's due! <span style="color: #008000; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 130%;">D. Examples in “real life”/general uses:
 * <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">The SMART Board could ideally be used any time a presentation was to be given especially in the business world because during a meeting it could be used to take notes and make changes to what is being discussed.

Teacher Uses** <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">- Teachers love using SMART Boards because of the way it gets their class engaged. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">- It is very easy to use and gives hands on learning experiences for students. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">- Notebook 10 provides many pre-made lesson plans categorized by state standards that are very useful in classrooms. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">- Great class collaboration. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">- No need for messy markers, and no artistic ability necessary! <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">- When using a SMARTBoard, most teachers understand how to use technology better and it enhances teaching abilities. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">**2. Student Uses** <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">- Using a SMARTBoard enhances student interest and participation. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">- When students use the SMART Board, they are more involved and engaged in lessons. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">- They may have more success and higher achievement when using something they enjoy. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">- Students can create their own lesson/ reports and show them to class. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">- Unlike a regular white board, the SMART Board promotes use of technology and fun and engaging activities for students of all ages. <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">And many many more reasons below! <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">**3. Possible differentiation for Special Needs/ELL students (if you can think of any) Extra Credit:** <span style="display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive;">- SMART Board is a great tool to use for special needs students. Because it is so hands on it provides easy to use lessons that help these students. Also, it has audio capabilities that speak aloud when you touch objects. The SMARTBoard is also beneficial to students with special needs because the keyboard can be made larger on the touch screen. The SMARTBoard also has the capability to decipher handwriting. For example, if a child writes the word "CAT" on the SMART Board and it is barely legible you can use the finder, right click the word and more often than not, the SMARTBoard will know what the word is supposed to say and you can change it so it can be read legibly. <span style="color: #008000; display: block; font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 130%;">F.
