SMART Notebook 10 for Windows Operating Systems
On a SMART Board 800 series interactive whiteboard, two people can create and manipulate objects in SMART Notebook software at the same time. Both people can create and manipulate objects in any area of the SMART Notebook software page. Neither user is restricted to a particular section of the page.
Dual-user collaboration mode is enabled when you pick up a pen from the pen tray. One user creates or manipulates objects with his or her finger (“the touch user”). The other user creates or manipulates objects with the pen (“the pen user”).
Dual-user collaboration mode is useful in scenarios such as the following:
Two students work on an assignment on the interactive whiteboard at the same time.
A teacher and student work on an assignment on the interactive whiteboard at the same time.
A teacher or student poses questions or problems on the interactive whiteboard, and another student responds to these questions or problems.
NOTES
On a SMART Board D600 series interactive whiteboard, two people can use the interactive whiteboard as well; however, the procedure for doing so is different.
In addition to enabling one touch user and one pen user to use the interactive whiteboard at the same time, you can enable two pen users to use the interactive whiteboard at the same time. However, the two pen users must use the same tool.
To change tools or to set properties, the touch user presses the appropriate button on the toolbar or control in the Properties tab with his or her finger. The following is an example:
To change tools or to set properties, the pen user presses the appropriate button on the toolbar or control in the Properties tab with the pen. The following is an example:
NOTES
If the pen user presses a button on the toolbar with his or her finger instead of the pen, SMART Notebook software changes the selected tool for the touch user rather than for the pen user.
When both the touch user and the pen user select multiple objects on the screen, the dashed border of the objects selected by the touch user is a different colour from the dashed border of the object selected by the pen user.
