Tired of having to write or draw big so your students can see your notes, formulas or diagrams on the chalk or dry erase board? See how you can use digital alternatives that can be projected on a big screen--and even captured, narrated and replayed in Blackboard. Faculty-led demos will include:
* Hitachi StarBoard Input Screens (available in LH 7 & 8)
* Tablet PCs (like the IBM Lenovo X61 currently available in AV Services)
* Wacom Graphic Tablet (http://global.wacom.com/index2.cfm)
* Document Cameras (currently installed in all but two lecture halls: LH1 & LH3)
* AceCad Digimemo "Digital Paper" Pads (http://www.acecad.com.tw/products.html)
With most of these options, if you have some kind of screen capture tool like Camtasia (www.techsmith.com/camtasia), you could also capture the screen movements and audio narration for later display in a password-protected space like Blackboard.
