"Ask each participant to send you a wish list of things that they may be able to do on the software. Have plenty of ideas of your own that they can modify for their own use."

"I'd have the teachers sign up for this Ning and show them how to use the search engines on the site to look for specific Notebook files. I'd also record the presentation so others can view it later. (Thanks in advance for doing this!)"

Advanced SMARTBoard

I am preparing to do a 45 minute workshop on Advanced SMARTBoard. It occurred to me as I was sorting through materials that what seems advanced to me isn't advanced to a classroom teacher. So I am looking for suggestions. If you were giving this workshop, what would you include?
