smart

I have been having a go at making some activities using the notebook software for Smart. I had used this to a small extent previously but not much. I used objects to 'hide' and 'reveal' words or answers. I have realised now that there are much more complex relationships you can create between objects and this is what i have started to use. You can choose objects to be accepted or rejected and so, like i have done, if the activity is to match words to pictures you can set the word to be accepted by the correct picture. Another feature I discovered was the ability to add sound. This is particularly useful in language teaching as you can hear pronunciation by just clicking text or a picture. i have embedded the results as a powerpoint for you to see. I'm not sure how well the interactivity is maintained with the conversion to powerpoint however... I am also embedding a previous activity I put together.
