I have a teacher in my school that uses the ink layer all the time. Last Friday something strange started happening. Every time she tried to close the ink layer by clicking on the X it took a picture of the screen. I tried to orient the SMARTBoard several times but it did not help. I even tried restarting her computer, still did not fix problem. Is there anything else we can try before contacting SMART Teck Help? We are using Notebook 10.7 Thanks for any help you can give.ChristiSee More

I agree their little fingers are not ready for true keyboarding. What I want them to learn is where the letters are on the keyboard not the correct fingering.
I like the idea of using a wiki or blog with them.
Thanks"
