Version 10.6 provides full support for Microsoft® Windows® 7 and Mac Snow Leopard
 

CALGARY, Alberta --- January 12, 2010 --- SMART Technologies announces the release of version 10.6 of SMART Notebook collaborative learning software. The award-winning software now offers full support for the Microsoft Windows 7 and Macintosh Snow Leopard operating systems, ensuring compatibility with the latest operating systems, and more digital resources and features to enhance lesson activities. Among the new resources is an innovative transparent SMART Notebook feature. By touching an icon, teachers can make the SMART Notebook interface disappear while continuing to make use of all SMART Notebook functions. This enables them to annotate over any image, web page or application. SMART Notebook 10.6 also supports a total of five languages for the Mac operating system and 48 languages for the Windows operating system.  SMART Notebook version 10.6 will be available for download in late January at no additional cost to licensed users of SMART Notebook.
 

Teachers in more than 175 countries use SMART Notebook collaborative learning software to create and deliver engaging lesson activities for over 30 million students. SMART Notebook 10.6 offers increased integration with the SMART Exchange™ online community and thousands of standards-correlated teaching resources. Teachers now have quick access to a large and growing collection of Gallery items, SMART Notebook lesson activities and SMART Response™ question sets. New tools make math lesson activities easier and more effective. These include a ruler and a protractor, which provide accurate measurements even when resized, and a compass that enables teachers and students to easily create perfect arcs and circles. Additional shapes, including the perfect circle, perfect square, regular polygons and three types of triangles, provide additional options. For more information on SMART Notebook 10.6 software, see smarttech.com/notebook.
 
“As more teachers around the world rely on digital learning tools, the need for high-quality educational resources increases,” says Nancy Knowlton, SMART’s CEO. “The new features and content within SMART Notebook 10.6 make it even easier for teachers to create dynamic lesson activities that make learning effective and engaging.”
