What one tool makes writing disappear, spotlights items onscreen, and magnifies the minute? The Magic Pen of course!
The Magic Pen Tool in SMART Notebook allows you to do three things (see that there are three stars around the pen?).
1. Write with disappearing ink. Sometimes you just need to make a quick note that does not need to hang around. Tap the Magic Pen button once and use your finger to write or draw. The digital ink will fade away as you continue talking.
2. Spotlight that content! Do you need to draw your students’ attention to a particular area of the screen? Tap the Magic Pen button once then draw a circle around the area you’d like to spotlight. Cool, eh?
3. Magnify the miniscule: A tiny icon, a web address, a particular cell; any of these can be magnified by tapping the Magic Pen button once and then using your finger to draw a rectangle around the item to enlarge.
