Each .notebook file contains one or more pages and each page contains objects, such as freehand
objects, straight lines, geometric shapes, text, graphics,tables and Adobe® Flash® Player
compatible files. Many objects contain visual, audio and interactive elements, enabling the teacher to
create materials for all learning types (visual, auditory and kinesthetic).
The teacher can add objects to pages by doing the following:
l
Creating objects using the tools in SMART Notebook software.
l
Importing objects from the Gallery or an online source such as the SMART Exchange online
community.
The following is an example page in which the teacher presents information on Christopher
Columbus’s 1492 voyage and asks students to retrace his journey using a pen from the SMART

Assessing students
The teacher can use SMART Response CE software to evaluate student progress or to confidentially
gather student responses. The teacher creates questions in SMART Notebook software by using a
wizard or by importing the questions from a Microsoft® Word or XML file. Alternatively, the teacher
can create instant questions spontaneously while teaching.
