SMART Boards bring interactivity to your learning environments. They are easy to use, dependable and adaptable. SMART Boards make learning a visual, engaging and collaborative experience.
The key to this experience is touch. You simply touch the surface to select menus and icons. To write notes, you can pick up a pen and write with either the pen or
your finger. The Center has a SMART Board 600 series whiteboard common to other SMART Boards found throughout campus.
Some features of the SMART Board include:
Touch system
Write or perform mouse functions by touching the board with a pen or your finger, and erase using the eraser tool – no proprietary tools are required.
Touch Recognition
Touch the board with a pen or your finger to write or perform mouse functions. Erase using the eraser tool or the palm of your hand. SMART’s Touch Recognition feature enables the board to switch between modes automatically – no special tools or actions required.
Pen Tray
Pick up a pen or the eraser, and the Pen Tray automatically detects which tool you’ve selected. Buttons on the Pen Tray activate the On-Screen Keyboard, right-click and help functions.
Digital ink
Simply pick up a pen to write in digital ink. You can even use your finger to write. No special tools are required, and you don’t have to launch any software. Just walk up to the interactive whiteboard and start writing.
Training
The Center offers one-on-one training on the use of the board or if you would like to get familiar with it on your own and need a space to do so, please e-mail The Center at idtrc@ccsu.edu to request an appointment time.
