Hands-On Practice: Basic Functionality - Smart Technologies SMART Board Learner Workbook

Hands-On Practice: Basic Functionality

Your school or company has just moved one of your SMART Board™ interactive whiteboards into a new
room because you were unable to access the Internet from the old location. You will be the first person to
use the interactive whiteboard in the new environment and will be showing everyone how to use the
interactive whiteboard and the Internet together.
You have learned through experience that whenever a piece of technology gets moved, it's a good idea to
test it before you deliver a lesson or presentation. The computer, SMART Board interactive whiteboard and
projector appear to be working properly when you turn everything on. However, when you double-press the
Internet browser icon on your desktop, your cursor appears a few inches away from your finger press.
Orienting Your SMART Board Interactive Whiteboard
You remember that when the projector or interactive whiteboard moves location, you should orient the
SMART Board. This will tell the computer where the image of the desktop is being displayed on the surface
of the interactive whiteboard.
1 To orient the interactive whiteboard, press and hold the Keyboard button and the Right Mouse
button simultaneously until the Orientation screen appears.
