Using the interactive response system
You can purchase SMART Response interactive response system software for both
Windows and Mac computers that meet the minimum specifications. See Computer
requirements on page 8 for information.
You can use SMART Response's integrated SMART Notebook features on any
computer, so you can take your laptop home to develop assessment questions without
having to connect a SMART Response receiver. You can then copy the assessment
files to a classroom computer where you can run your assessments.
When you install SMART Response, by default, the installation program installs SMART
Notebook software, SMARTProduct Drivers and SMART Response assessment
software. SMARTResponse assessment software includes Teacher Tools and new
menus that appear in the SMART Notebook toolbar. You can use the software free of
charge for 30 days after which you must activate the software.
Asking Instant Questions
Use the Instant Question feature to introduce the SMART Response interactive
response system to your students. Instant Questions are individual questions you ask
spontaneously—they aren't part of an assessment. When you use Instant Questions,
you’re unable to type a question or assign a correct answer.
You can ask an instant question verbally, write it on an interactive whiteboard or type it
and add objects directly onto the SMART Notebook page.
