EDUSIM

What is Edusim? Edusim Homepage Edusim Videos More Videos
 
Tech Tip #8 – Organizing the Gallery
  The first thing to do is find the collection in the Gallery. For my example, I'll use graph paper. So I would click the Gallery tab, expand Essentials for Educators by clicking the plus sign to the left of the label, expand Mathematics, expand General Resources and select Paper Backgrounds. Once Paper Backgrounds is selected, you'll notice a drop down arrow to the right of the label. Clicking the drop down arrow will open a menu of options. Select the Add To My Content option. It might take a minute, but this will copy this entire Paper Background collection under your My Content. Notice, too, that you can select an individual object in the Gallery, such as backgrounds, clipart, etc, and using the same drop down menu can send it straight to your My Content as well.

When you are ready to use the content in your My Content, just expand My Content and you will see everything you have added.

 

Tech Tip #9 – Printing in Notebook
  Have you tried recently to print in Notebook? With the updated version we are using, you have more printing options than before. When you go to File, Print, you have several options.
1. Thumbnails - prints just images of Notebook slides. Notice you have four options in the dropdown menu under Thumbnail Size. Small allows 6 slides per page, medium allows 4 slides, large allows 2 slides and full page is a single slide per printed page.
2. Handouts - in a similar manner as printing handouts in PowerPoint, this feature prints your slide with lines for notes off to the right.
3. Full page - finally you can print a Notebook slide and it will print in a full page! Many of you have asked about this and it was finally updated!
Tech Tip #12 – Capturing in Notebook
  This tip is to remind you of the capturing feature in Notebook. Capturing to SMART Notebook allows you to take a document and make it interactive. The easiest way to do this is to first open Notebook. Then open your Word, Excel, PowerPoint or even Internet page, go to File, Print, select SMART Notebook Print Capture from the drop down menu next to the printer name and then click OK. When you go back to Notebook, you'll have the entire document or site captured.
 
Advanced tip - you can also capture just certain pages. In the same way you tell the printer you only want to print pages 2-7, you also can capture pages 2-7. Try it out at a site like http://greece.k12.ny.us/instruction/ela/6-12/Tools/Index.htm with a graphic organizer or http://dese.mo.gov/divimprove/assess/content.html with MAP released items.
 
This is a great time saver when you have a premade document such as a study guide, graphic organizer, or other document and you want to be able to annotate on it.
 
Tech Tip #14 – SMART Recorder
 
Do you have any students who are homebound, have been out sick or parents wondering how to help their child with work from your class? Would a recorded example of classwork help? Notebook has a SMART Recorder that might help. Here's what to do:
1. Open the SMART Recorder. This can be found by going to Start, Programs, SMART Board Software, SMART Recorder or launching it from the Start Center tool bar.
2. A small recording window will launch. Click the record button (red dot).
3. Once you are recording, everything will be recorded - opening documents, annotations, navigations, etc. So now is the time to illustrate what you want recorded.
4. Once you have completed the series of events to be recorded, click the stop button (blue square).
5. Save your recording to either your desktop or My Documents. By default it will save as the date, so be sure to rename it.
6. After saving the recording, you might want to burn it to a CD so you can send it home with your students.

Why would you want to do something like this? What about showing steps in a process, mathematical equations, finding key words or context clues, or anything else that could be illustrated.
