shcyarrlogo1.pngTask 10: Using your the Smart Recorder


This is where the Notebook software becomes really powerful.

The Smart Recorder allows you to record anything you do on the SmartBoard and turn it into a video recording. This is a great way to create instant video tutorials straight from your lessons for your students to use as reference or study guides. The other option is to create tutorials for your students and post them online for your students to access prior to classes.

To find the Smart Recorder it is on the same toolbar where you found the other tools in activity 7.
