New Interactives on SmartBoard
Smart Express
allows you to open any Notebook file, from anywhere, anytime. You can even
create new Notebook files, but with very limited features. Just think about it,
you can share your Notebook files with students, parents, other teachers without
them having to have the Notebook software installed on their computers. Using
the SMART Express website, they will be able view, save, edit and share lessons.
It's free and no log in is required and no software installation.
