Coming this April, SMART technologies is releasing their newest update to the notebook software, SMART Notebook 14. It is very similar in look to Notebook 11, which is great for teachers (not much of a learning curve here) and some new cool features. I have included some of my observations here, along with a video made by Amy from SMART, as she highlights some of the new features in the updated software.
Just learned a new feature in Google Docs at the Google Summit in Charlottesville VA.
There is a Research Tool and it is fantastic! It is a very easy way to find and cite research articles on a topic. This would also be great for teaching students about citing their resources.
Within your Google Document, highlight the text you want to research, and:
– Click Tools –> Research (Ctrl + Alt +Shift + I). A side window will pop up with search results. For each one you can Preview, Insert a Link (creates a hyperlink to the article for the highlighted text), or Cite (which inserts the citation into your document).
