All features
Add-on to SMART Notebook software
Access all the great features, tools and Gallery items in SMART Notebook software, and get additional math-specific tools. SMART Notebook Math Tools incorporates all the tools you need right into SMART Notebook software, saving you from running several applications to deliver a lesson.
Customizable math toolbar
Get instant access to math-specific tools within SMART Notebook software. You can customize the default toolbar to show only the tools you want to see, or display a second toolbar with just your math tools.
Handwriting recognition and solving
Handwrite questions on the fly – SMART Notebook Math Tools recognizes handwritten mathematical equations and symbols so you can simplify, solve and graph solutions. Expressions can be solved numerically or symbolically with full support for fractions, exponents and multiline expressions.
Advanced equation editor
Insert and edit textbook-quality equations into your lessons with the advanced equation editor. You can copy and paste equations or question sets from other software applications, such as Microsoft Word – without reformatting. SMART Notebook Math Tools recognizes the equations, allowing you to simplify, solve and graph solutions.
Texas Instruments emulator integration
Launch your TI emulator with one click in SMART Notebook Math Tools. The TI calculator will stay on top of your screen as you copy expressions into your lessons.
Table and graphing tools
Incorporate tables into your lessons. SMART Notebook Math Tools includes a new math table feature with labeled columns and dynamic, interactive graphing capabilities. Easily show the relationship between tables of values and their points plotted on the graph. Changed values on the graph are automatically reflected in the table and vice versa.
Graph Wizard
Create graphs that match your lesson with the Graph Wizard, or use one of the default graphs for fast instruction during a lesson. Lines and shapes can be added to your graphs, with the option to show the coordinates of vertices and side lengths.
New and improved shapes
Discover shapes not previously available in SMART Notebook software. Incorporate perfect squares, semicircles, new triangles and curved lines. In addition, SMART Notebook Math Tools includes twelve standard regular polygons and a new irregular polygon tool that enables you to create polygons with as many sides as you want. You can also draw a circle from a center point.
Shape manipulation
Manipulate shapes and incorporate them into your lessons. With angle manipulation, you can independently adjust the vertices of any shape and watch the angle and line lengths change instantly. Adjust one angle and the corresponding side lengths change automatically. The display of side lengths can be hidden and revealed at any time during the lesson.
Shape division
Divide shapes such as circles and rectangles into equal parts using shape division, and each part can be labeled as a fraction of the whole. The individual parts can be independently manipulated or grouped with others.
Advanced measurement tools
Incorporate flexible and intuitive tools into your lessons on geometry, measurements and algebra. Use the improved ruler, protractor and compass in SMART Notebook software and other applications using the SMART Board interactive whiteboard floating toolbar.
Ruler
Make accurate measurements with the improved ruler. Resize it for your lesson by increasing or decreasing the length without losing scale. You can use digital ink to trace along its edge, and it will give you a perfect line, every time. The ruler can be flipped for metric or empirical measurements, and all of the numbers on the ruler stay vertical as it is rotated, making it easy to read. The ruler also displays the current angle as it is rotated.
Protractor
Use the protractor in 180 degree mode or expand it to 360 degrees. You can use digital ink to trace along its edge to draw a perfect curve every time. Numbers on the protractor stay vertical as it is rotated, making them easy to read. The angle ejector allows you to set an angle on the protractor and instantly eject it into your lesson without having to draw it freehand.
Compass
Create arcs or circles easily with the new compass. The ink always matches your current pen or ink selection as you use the compass, and it can be adjusted to any size on the screen.
Integrated math engine
Evaluate simple and complex math expressions right inside SMART Notebook software without requiring a separate calculator.
