bjbjT~T~ JOHNSON COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE Learning Studio SMART Boards Video Transcription
****** Welcome to Johnson County Community College Learning Studio in LIB 353B. Scattered
across campus are SMART Boards and this presentation is going to show you how you might want to
use a SMART Board and some of its functionality. First thing you need to know is that you ll
have a computer that s turned on in your classroom and you ll need to turn this SMART Board on
as well. There s a button down here in the lower corner. You ll also need a projection
system. It s attached to this SMART Board. If yours isn t, you might have to turn that
on as well. Once you have the SMART Board up, there are a couple things you might need
to do once you re in the classroom. You might not have the floating tool palette and there
s an icon and it s blue and a circle kind of looks like a target and if you click on
that, what it will do is bring up this floating tool bar. You can hide the tool bar by pressing
on the arrows and then bring it back again. You ll want this functionality for the pointer
and the pens. So you can go between the pointer and the pens on the floating tool bar. The
other thing you might need to do, that I hope you don t, but you can access the tools in
the corner. It s the same blue icon, and if you re writing on the SMART Board and the
pen and what you re writing don t line up together, you will need to use the Orient.
And I m just going to do that to show you how it goes. It s a pretty simple process.
You just click on Orient and then what it does is it brings up these X s, red X s, and
all you need to do is click in the center and there s a little yellow dot and what this
does is it orients the SMART Board and lines it up with the marker and the board itself.
For SMART Boards that have a digital projector, you probably will never have to do that orientation.
So now they re lined up together. I have a little presentation here. Notice that I m
not at my computer. I can do all of my presentation right here from the SMART Board itself and
can run the PowerPoint. A couple of these slides we ve already gone over. So, why do
you want to use a SMART Board and how can you use a SMART Board? And these are just
the quick notes. It said make sure your computer is on, make sure the SMART Board is on, make
sure that the digital projector is on. This is a white board. It s not a whole lot different
in terms of writing on it in surface as any white board that s in your classroom. The
difference is that you have the power of a computer, you re going to be able to engage
your students with the videos and any kind of computer stuff that you do, it s touch-sensitive
and we re going be able to control anything that we can control on the computer I should
be able to control right here on the SMART Board. So I can use my fingers. I could use
a pen if I wanted to, so I can go back. You can use any different kind of a touch object.
There s a whole lot of electronics behind this board that allow you to be able to do
this electronics. So if I want to write on this, I can write on this. So you can write
on it and if I don t like what I ve written, I can erase it. There are four different colored
pens. So we ve got a red pen that you can write with, you have black, blue and green.
The kind of neat thing is that it doesn t really matter what color of pen you re holding,
what matters is the color of the tray. So, if I pull up a green pen in a red tray, it
s going to be red. So you should probably not mess with your students. You should probably
have the pens appropriate, but I just want you to know it s the tray that determines
the color not the pen itself. So we can erase that because it will stay on. Go back to the
pointer. So, this tray automatically detects the tool that you want to use. You can activate
a keyboard on screen with a button underneath the eraser, and a keyboard comes up, so if
you need any keyboard commands, you re able to get the keyboard here. You could type if
you wanted to as well, but I m not sure why you d type with a keyboard on a SMART Board.
You can capture your work as well and we re not going to cover that in this presentation.
So there s other software that you can get through the SMART Board tools where you re
able to capture all of your video and record it and there s also software that we can use
that s a notebook that goes along with the SMART Board as well. You can save this into
many different applications. That s something that you can explore and do on your on or
talk to your Ed Tech advisor. What I really like about the SMART Board is that I m able
to incorporate things from YouTube or videos and play them right here. So this is just
a Hindenburg video. And I m not going to play a lot of this, but we can close the window
and then simply go on. So, any kind of Web links that you have, you can incorporate them
right here and use them, so I don t have to go back to the computer and use other key
strokes. I can just use the SMART Board and interact with the class, but also have this
powerful linking system. So this is a hard-coated surface. Its terra-proof, it s optimized for
projection, so you don t that glare off of it. It s compatible with any dry-erasing markers,
so I can use the dry-erasing markers that I have for any of these other white boards.
Talked about the notebook software and the notebook software is pretty nifty. I ve used
it a little and it interfaces really nicely, so you can take any presentation and anything
you can do in Word, you can do in the notebook itself. You can create content, you can organize
it, you can save your notes, and you can draw and capture whatever you do. So there s notebook
software you can use, there s a recorder that s available, there s a video player that s
available showed you the keyboard and then this floating tool bar. We have lots of tools
for this SMART Board. The SMART Board software itself is a powerful combination of the notebook,
white board software and SMART Board tools. We have a license for it. You can talk to
your ETC advisor. What it allows you to do is it allows you to create content, to organize
content, to save your notes, and to draw and capture your drawings on this screen itself.
The notebook software is what I just talked about. There s a recorder, a video player
we showed you the keyboard earlier and the floating toolbar. So those are all the features
that you have accessible and able to use with the SMART Board. This is the floating toolbar
just kind of expanded out for you. So it s the pointer, we have the pens, the different
colors that you can use, the highlighter, the eraser. If you have it installed, you
can have the line and draw shapes. And then this is all the tools itself, so if I were
to click on this button, it should bring up all the tools and these are all the tools
that are available to you. The Spotlight is one of those tools and what it does is it
gives you a spotlight that you can move around and highlight different images if you are
in the SMART notebook software. There s a screen shade that you can pull down and cover
up and uncover material as you need it, so it blankens the screen and then you can be
solving a problem say in math and show the formula and then pull the screen down as you
go. s a really flexible tool that s really good to use in teaching. You can write over
anything. When I had that video up of for Hindenburg, I could ve written on that Hindenburg
video itself. So anything that projects on this screen can be written over by just using
the hand tool. Here s a couple links, I can go to those links and show you. I believe
that we have the capability of giving you these two links, but this is a link that goes
out and has all sorts of different tools and ideas. So if you search the Internet and search
for SMART Board tools, there are lots of different places that have video, so you can simply
go. Here s another site that I have found. It s a lot more resources for the SMART Board
itself. If you re interested in doing something on a SMART Board, you can search the Web yourself
or you can call your ETC advisor. I use the SMART Board in terms of my lectures. I record
my lectures in the classroom. That will be a different video by somebody else. You ll
need the lavalier microphone, you ll PowerPoint slides and the beauty of this for me is to
being able to control everything that I m doing in the classroom right here at the SMART
Board and being able to interface with my students without being behind a computer screen.
You can produce those movies, you can make flash files out of them I have a distance
class, so this really helps my distance students as well. So your imagination is the limit.
