Using Smartboards in a University Setting
Touch-based interfaces have become incredibly popular and are familiar to most people who use smartphones and tablets, or access an electronic kiosk. Interactive white boards and displays help bring a level of gesture-based intuitive interactivity to higher learning. For research committees and departmental meetings, they encourage collaboration and brainstorming with the ability to save digitally all topics and ideas discussed. For classrooms, they allow for student participation and interaction beyond the traditional one-way lecture, with their ideas and conversations saved for future distribution amongst the class.
After completing the learning experiences in this stream participants will be acquainted with:
- A breakdown of the hardware.
- How the Smartboard interacts with your operating system.
- How you interact with "ink aware" applications.
- An overview of the Smart Notebook software.
