I wrote about a new app for the iPad in a previous post, and I came across another article that talks about another app for iPad users. Smart Technologies will be releasing a new Smart Notebook app that students and teachers can use on iPads. This app will be similar to a Smart Board and students will be able to use Smart Board tools on their own iPads. Students will be able to interact with teachers, open files, edit files, upload pictures, and much more. Smart Technologies states, "With Smart Notebook for iPad 'students and teachers stay on track and save time by being able to work with the same material on both interactive displays and iPads at school or at home'" (Barthold, 2012).
I love the idea of using this app in the classroom! However, I don't currently have access to iPads in my school. As education is turning more towards technology, this app seems like a great way to use some of the technology already used in the classroom. I have a Smart Board in my room that I use on a daily basis, so it would be great if I could incorporate this new app into my classroom!

I'm very excited to hear about this! I have previously looked to see if there was such a think as a Smart app. I'm excited to see what it will be like... even though I do not have iPads at school.
ReplyDeleteMy school has access to a class set of iPads as well as a few floating around the classrooms. It will be interesting to see how the app works and I foresee it beings engaging for students.
ReplyDeleteWow this is so cool! I am hoping to either get a Smartboard or iPads in my classroom next year and I will certainly remeber this blog to help me next year.
ReplyDeleteHi friends,
ReplyDeleteUsing the smart notebook app, it will be possible to use many of the tools typically used on the smart board. From this summer, teachers and students will be able to use smart notebook software on an iPad using the smart notebook app. Thank you.
