Software download |
The
9.5 version of SMARTboard software is the
version which is currently installed in most SBC schools. It is
free and can be downloaded for home use from here.
(Note - This is not the latest version of the software, but would be
the same as that installed in schools at present.) Select SMART Board
software 9.5 service pack 5 - full installation.
The latest version of the software just released is
version 10. This will be rolled out to SBC schools during Session
2008-2009. It can be downloaded from here.
(Note:- Do not attempt this on a school network !! The previous version
needs to be de-installed. Follow the instructions on the site. Smart
Notebook resources created with this version may not function fully when
accessed through version 9.5 or 9.7) However it can be
downloaded at home, if you submit the serial number of your SMARTboard.
You receive an activation 'key' to allow the software to work |
| Downloadable
training handouts, and online tutorials from Smarttech and Steljes
websites. |
This is a good overall starting point.
