=SMART SYNC= we will be using the notebook plus the smart sync teacher and students software THUMBNAIL TAB Using the announcement with all and how to send announcement to one- Touch the screen you want to send the announcement to and just announce to them. use drop down menu to pass the chalk so a student can control it. You will have to end pass the chalk to get the controls back to teacher and then the students can no longer have control. There is a blue line around the screen when we are broadcasting - kind of like the ink layer. You can also broadcast media to each netbook.
 * 1) Double click on smart sync teacher first
 * 2) put name in and class and say ok
 * 3) You will see blank screens
 * 4) Have students click on smart sync and click connect and have them connect to Bennet
 * 5) Lock -Using the lock feature/ touch the lock and touch it again to unblock the pages

 * Show Media**- you can send media to their laptops
 * Send Web**- just type in address.
 * Shut Down**- it will shut down the sync between teachers and students
 * File transfer or show media of Video**- for a video of 5 minutes in length it takes 4 minutes to send to 3 netbooks, But it did allow the students to control the video. If tecahers are going to need to use this- teach while it is downloading make sure students keep their netbooks awake during the process.
 * Show media**- takes forever- and the video sound would not be steady and consistant.
 * Send file**- video took a long time but it played with no interruption of the sound or video. ** Make sure the file is closed before you attempt to send a file. **

//Once we download sync to our computer, an extra toolbar pops up on all websites that lets us send to students. Little orange sync icon.//

You can also shut down all the students and they get a message telling them to save their work.

COLLABORATION TAB can only choose 2 or three people. Allow students to chat- browse for an assignment. It can choose randomly. click start- and the students will get a message. the students must click ok, It will read completed on teacher computer once students hit that hand in feature on the right= they can auto hide the toolbar to show more of the screen on their toolbar. You can stop the collaboration when you hit the stop button on the right of the top toolbar.


 * Chat-** When you send a chat by highlight a student before you hit chat they will get a notification at the bottom of their screen. When you turn chat off they cannot respond to you- so keep it on.


 * Questions**-

Send File- to all students- do not send files while you are sending them media.

When you change the side icon- the toolbar changes at the top for your options.
 * Applications-** you can block applications, you can launch applications.

Teacher starts class- open the assessment student open smartnotebook SE go to response tab at bottom-connect to her class. enter student id in this area and takes the assessment.
 * Assessment-**

When teacher is sending an assignment the teacher goes to collaboration>choose group size> browse for assignment> if you wnat to add any aditional resources you can> allow students to chat or not to chat>press start.
 * FOR SMALL GROUPS**

The student will get the message- will change the document with their answers> save the document(DONT CHANGE NAME of doc) and hand in, by hitting hand in button. Once they hand it in teacher will see under student screen in the collaboration tab- it will show the file name of the assignment> click on it to view. Stop the collaboration and it will tell you where to find all the submitted work on your hard drive. It will go under a file called Submitted student files in documents. You will see documents> submitted student files> collaboration>date>group# > individual work. If teacher wants to resend the assigment for the next class or the next year, teacher can find assigment in documents> submitted student files> collaboration>date>group>assignment.

GROUP WORK Teacher sends assignment to the group groups members must join group in order to share and chat. (Teacher may have to chat first to enable chat) Each student compltes their portion of the assigmnet and hnds it in. The LAST person to hand in their individual assignment then become responsible for handing in group assignment. STudents can see in the sidebar whose work is handed in. Group then collaborates by chat and can paste their individual work to that area to be pasted in the main document. Everyone must check the ready to hand in button before it can be submitted. teacher will get individual AND group assignments. Collaboration will end. **Important!**

You have to know which system you are going to use if you are using laptops it is smart respsonse CE and clickers is smart response PE (Must have relay in for PE)

Start >all programs>smart technologies> smart response> setup tool Do not change assessment methods midstream you would have to exit out.

Students can take entire assessment at their own pace... when teacher stops assessment you can see you score hit save this assessment, it saves on their laptop. they will be able to see their score They have a smart student edition- My home gives then their own home their own binder they can find recent files they have templates they can work off of they can flag something to study. They have their own gallery.

**Smart Response-** Tips and tricks out of the box- Good practices! Throw up a questions that is partly correct- break into discussion groups and defend your answer- throw up a question and take a poll. Instant question think pair share round robin add sound

Lag time- should be no longer than 5 seconds. How far away from the teacher can the laptops be? How far away can you sync from?

First I am assuming your SMART Response is activated. Second, the Set-Up Tool for SMART Response should have SMART Notebook SE (SMART Response CE) checked Select **Start > All Programs > SMART Technlogies > SMART Response > Setup Tool** (It opens, select SE option, click OK) (this selects how students answer questions) Make sure Mixed Mode is not checked as students will not be able to use SMART Notebook SE while Response is in Mixed Mode. Also note that before you can change any of the settings in the SMART Response Setup Tool you need to stop running classes and close out of SMART Notebook and Teacher Tools if they are running.
