Hi Blue Earth High School and Winnebago Elementary Teachers, Here are a few follow-up items from our time together:

Alicia - Here's the virtual keyboard and flash piano that we talked about: [|Flash Piano] [|Virtual Keyboard]

Joan - Here's the website for the 30 day trial of the SMARTView TI 84 emulator. [|TI 84 emulator]

There were some discussions about Senteos, here are a few Senteo resources: [|Senteo Question sets from SMART Tech] [|Witchita Schools Senteo and SMART Board activities] [|Teacher Tube Senteo Videos] [|SMART Tech Senteo Forum] Everyone is waiting patiently for Senteo 2.0 software to be released. Senteo 2.0 will have some great new features!

Gary - I did some researching for Business Education ideas, but haven't come up with a lot. There doesn't seem to be many ideas out there in your subject area yet. At KM, we don't currently have SMART Boards in our Business Education/Computer Aps classes.

__Precise Orienting Tip:__ A couple of people were interested in being able to orient their boards more precisely. To orient more precisely, do the following: Go to the Control Panel in SMART Notebook 10, then SMART Hardware Settings, on the drop-down menu - go to Orientation/Alignment Settings, and choose the wide or fine orientation settings instead of the standard. This will give you more precise touch.
