SMART+Podium

This page hosts resources for using the SMART Podium. We currently have SMART Podiums in several classrooms on the main HCC Campus and at the Laurel College Center. Faculty may use the SMART Podium to generate annotated PowerPoints, web pages, images or create class notes.

Please contact IMFacultyLab@howardcc.edu for assistance. ** How To Videos ** || Writing all class notes in PowerPoint for projection and then saving them can improve students access to important instructional content. This video shows you how to create a blank PowerPoint for capturing those notes you would write on a traditional whiteboard and then export it as a pdf or save it as a modified PowerPoint and post it to Canvas for your students to review. || || Take a picture of the computer screen and paste it into a SMART Notebook page. This is useful for capturing images on websites that cannot be downloaded to your computer. || || Test your knowledge of the process of annotating a PowerPoint ||
