''Can I change the pen to a color other than those listed?''\nYes. You can change the pen's color to a new color by changing the fill color for one of the existing pen color tools ''before'' you select that pen color. Simply right-click on a pen palette color to open a pop-up menu with 48 available colors to choose from. What's more, your palette color changes will be preserved on any new whiteboards added from that slide.\n\n''Is there an easy way to duplicate all the ink on one slide onto another slide?''\nYes, there is a way. Sometimes you may want to have a slide with certain ink markings and then duplicate those markings onto another slide so that you can show the progressive steps involved in achieving a final goal. For instance, a math instructor may want to continue to build an equation across multiple whiteboard slides to show the process of arriving at the answer.\nYou can do this with Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^, but the process is not straightforward at first glance. That's because ~PowerPoint does not treat ink as part of a slide ''until'' you exit from the slideshow and choose to keep your markings.<html><br /></html>\nTo duplicate the ink on the current slide, follow these simple steps:\n#Starting with a new slide, draw the ''first layer'' of your diagram\n#Now tap the ''New Slide'' button to add a new blank slide (why? see the //Notes// below)\n#Immediately go back to the ''Previous Slide'' (i.e. your layer slide)\n#Tap the ''Exit Show'' button to exit slideshow mode and choose to ''Keep'' your ink when prompted\n#Immediately restart the slideshow at the current, layer slide using the //easel view icon// [img[easel view icon|easel.gif]] near the bottom left of the ~PowerPoint program window\n#Tap the ''New Slide'' button again. This time a new slide will be created based on your first layer slide\n#If you wish to have a third, forth or fifth layer, you can simply repeat steps 3-5 at each new layer (i.e. exit the show, restart the show at the current slide, add a new slide, and draw the next layer)\n''Notes:''\n*''Important:'' The reason for step #2 is because you will probably want to have a totally empty slide at the end of the deck so that you can again start over with a new blank slide when you are finished with all of your layers. To do this, you must add an empty whiteboard at the end of the presentation.\n*Once you exit slideshow view and save the ink, you will not be able to erase those existing ink markings when you restart the slideshow. To erase ink that has been integrated into the slide, you must exit the slideshow, and then use the ink markup tools in ~PowerPoint editing mode.\n\nHow do I create a blended presentation that has some whiteboard slides and some regular PowerPoint slides?\nThat's easy. Just start by opening the ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' template. Then either add your regular slides by creating them from scratch or by using the menu option ''Insert'' > ''Slides from Files''. Once all your prepared slides are added, duplicate the original whiteboard slide and place the duplicates in between your regular slides as needed. \nFor instance, if you want to start your lecture with three prepared slides and then spend a few minutes //whiteboarding// before going onto more prepared slides, then make sure that there is a duplicate whiteboard slide in between slides 3 & 4 of your presentation. You only need to insert one whiteboard slide in each location -- even if you plan on //whiteboarding// for several pages. That's because a single whiteboard can duplicate itself during a presentation using the ''New Board'' button in the chalk tray. And when you're ready to move on to your next prepared slide, simply tap the ''Next Slide'' button in the chalk tray.

~TabletWhiteboard is not compatible with Office 2007 (i.e. ~PowerPoint 2007). Changes to the way that ~PowerPoint 2007 handles code has caused problems with the functionality of ~TabletWhiteboard. This means that version <<getversion PptWb>> is only compatible with ~PowerPoint 2003 (not 2007). I hope to have a version of ~TabletWhiteboard available for ~PowerPoint 2007 sometime in the 2009.\n\n----

[[Attention Office 2007 Users]]\n[[Overview]]\n[[What's New]]

You can download ''version <<getversion PptWb>>'' of ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'', using [[this link|Tablet_WhiteBoard_Presentation_v1.4a.pot]].\nThis download is a ~PowerPoint template file (.pot) which means that you can open it to write your lecture. But when you save your completed handwritten lecture, it will be saved automatically as a new .ppt file, leaving the original .pot file untouched. This ensures that you don't overwrite the blank whiteboard template accidentally.\n\n''System Requirements:''\n*A Tablet PC with Windows XP Tablet PC Edition __''OR''__ <html><br /></html>A Windows XP desktop or laptop computer with a tablet monitor\n*Microsoft ~PowerPoint 2003 or later (part of Microsoft Office 2003)\n*An external data projector for projecting the whiteboard to students\nYou can also take a look at the [[revision history|RevisionHistory]] and the [[license|License]] if you'd like more information.

If byTitle, sort can be "question" and will reorder the questions in alphabetical order. (this parameter is optional; use "null" if you don't want a sort order, but want to use "hr" as the last paramter)\n// // ''hrSeparator:'' if "hr" is included at the end of the call string, each question/answer set will be separated by a horizontal rule.\n// //Examples: (edit these two tiddlers to see the syntax used for each)\n// // • [[FAQ Method One]] (compiled from tiddlers tagged with a certain tag)\n// // • [[FAQ Method Two]] (compiled using the content of a single tiddler)\n// // • @@color(#ff0000):''New!''@@ [[FAQ Method Three]] (uses the {{{<<tiddler>>}}} macro to pull the faq questions from a single tiddler and the answers from other tiddlers...very cool!)\n\n// //''Directions:'' <<tiddler StartupBehaviorDirections>> <<tiddler MacroDirections>>\n\n// //''Notes:'' If you choose to use byTitle mode where the entire set of questions/answers comes from a single tiddler, the syntax for the tiddler content is as follows:\n// // • Each question must be a single line (i.e. no hard returns) but can wrap as needed\n// // • The answer to a question begins on the next line after the question and can be as long as needed. It can also include hard returns as part of the answer text, but it cannot include empty lines (i.e. an empty line is the result of pressing enter twice).\n// // • Each question/answer set must be seperated by two hard returns (i.e. must have a single, blank line between them.\n// // Refer to [[FAQ Tiddler Sample]] for an example.\n\n// //''Known Issues:'' If a user clicks too quickly to toggle a FAQ entry on/off, they will go into tiddler edit mode.

''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' uses macros to perform functions such as adding/deleting slides and changing pen colors. In order for these functions to work you must make some adjustments to your macro security settings in ~PowerPoint.

''Why do I need to change my macro security settings?''\n<<tiddler MacroSecurity>> For more information, please read the [[installation instructions|Installation]].\n\n''What is a macro?''\nA macro is a piece of programming that performs a series of tasks instantly. For instance, you could create a macro to automatically 'type' your name and address at the top of a letter. Then anytime you need to type your ame & address, you would simply run the macro -- which would probably be faster than typing in the information manually.\n\n''Why does Tablet Whiteboard™ use macros?''\n''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' uses macros for things like switching pen colors, adding & deleting slides, and cleaning the presentation of all of the drawing controls so that you can distribute the file to your students. \n\n''Will changing the macro security settings make my computer more vulnerable to system attack?''\nThe answer is //yes// and //no//. Technically speaking, lowering your macro security and allowing access to the Visual Basic Project __does__ allow your system to run macros. And macros //can// contain code that exploits your computer. However, none of the code in ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' is harmful to your computer.\n\n''Are any of the macros in Tablet Whiteboard™ harmful to my system?''\nNo. None of the ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' macros will harm to your system. However, you should only [[download|Download]] ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' file from ''this'' website. Downloading it from other locations could mean that someone has added a //harmful// macro to the original whiteboard code.

Then, when you exit the presentation, you are prompted to keep your ink markings as part of the slides. By starting with a totally blank slide, you can handwrite your entire lecture and then save it for later use by students.\n\n''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' takes this concept of //blank slides// further by adding useful buttons to easily change pen color, erase ink, and add or delete slides. View the [[demo|Demo/Demo.html]] or the [[help screenshot|helpscreen.gif]] for more information.\n<<br>><<br>>

''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' was created in part to address some pedagogical flaws inherent in lectures using stock ~PowerPoint slideshows. The use of pre-authored presentations can easily move an otherwise dynamic teacher-student exchange toward a more cold, linear dissemination of information. In such situations, students quickly learn not to ask anticipatory questions because the slide order is pre-arranged, and jumping ahead or skipping sections is often awkward or confusing.\n\nOn the other hand, lectures using any 'live writing' technique allow for more flexible teacher-student interactions and can encourage student engagement with both the content and the instructor. ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' takes the idea even further by providing the following:\n*an endless supply of whiteboard real estate (you can add as many new boards as you need)\n*useful diagram and graphing grids to facilitate [[on-the-fly|On the fly]] illustrations \n*a version of the entire lecture that can be downloaded later by students\n*the ability to intersperse whiteboards with traditional ~PowerPoint content to maximize both types of presentation\nThere is also some pedagogy information listed under the [[Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)|FrequentlyAskedQuestions]]

Won't using Tablet Whiteboard™ encourage my students not to attend class or at least not to take notes?\nIt's true that by making the entire lecture downloadable after class may give students the idea that they no longer need to attend class or take notes. However, this speaks more to the already existing problem of student engagement than it does to the utilization of this particular technology.\nIf teachers do not make their lectures [[engaging|Strategies for Student Engagement]], then students will have little motivation to attend class or take notes. If the lecture notes or materials are not made available, then absent students may try to get them from someone who was in class.\nIn contrast, teachers who endeaver to make their teaching active and [[engaging|Strategies for Student Engagement]] find that students retain more and feel more fulfilled in class.

An RSS Aggregator is a program that fetches RSS feeds for websites and alerts you to any changes since the last fetch. RSS Aggregators are great for keeping up to date on topics or websites that you don't always have time to check. You'll only be alerted when there ''is'' new content.\n\nIf you don't already have an RSS Aggregator and you use Windows, I recommend one called ''~FeedReader'' which is free, lightweight and available for download at http://www.feedreader.com.

To keep up to date on changes to Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^, you can subscribe to the RSS feed for this website. Here is the <<rsslink XML index.xml>> link for you to copy into your [[RSS Aggregator]].

|bgcolor(#dddddd):Here are some reasons you might want to use Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^ as opposed to other presentation approaches:|\n\n''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^ is better than a standard whiteboard''\n*''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' is better than a standard 4'x8' whiteboard in that you can project the notes to larger audiences\n*Students can listen to your lectures without rushing to copy down what you write on the classroom whiteboard\n*Students get a copy of every word and diagram that you wrote on the board\n*Saving your notes as a ~PowerPoint slide presentation allows for easy printing later\n\n''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^ is better than using a prepared ~PowerPoint slideshow''\n*Prepared ~PowerPoint lectures can be boring; ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' helps bring back the dynamic nature of live lectures\n*Creating a formal ~PowerPoint slideshow takes time. If all you mainly display is //text// and diagrams, then ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' lets you create your lecture notes while your giving it\n*For first-time course preps, you can build ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' slides in class and later convert them to a regular ~PowerPoint for next semester\n*You're not locked into your lecture like you are with a regular slide presentation. You can rearrange your lecture and add relevant content [[on the fly|On the fly]].\n*Creating complex diagrams can be tricky with ~PowerPoint's drawing tools, with ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' all you do is draw it as you would on paper or use the overlay options to add an instant diagram, graph, or grid table\n\n''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^ is better than a wall-sized smart board''\n*Smart board setups can cost thousands of dollars. ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' is free and can be used with the Tablet PC you already have or with tablet monitors that cost much less than smart boards.\n*If you buy a smart board, you are locked into that manufacturer's hardware and software. With ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'', you can use whatever hardware you have. And ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' is a software-only solution, meaning that new features can be added without needing hardware modifications.\n*Smart boards require that you turn your back on your audience. ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' lets you write -- projected on the classroom screen -- and never turn your back on your students.\n*With smart boards, you need to upload your lectures before you leave the classroom. With ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'', you can shutdown your Tablet PC and worry about uploading your notes to your website when it's convenient for you.\n\nPlus, if you have Microsoft ~PowerPoint, you have everything you need, meaning no complex software installations. And [[setup|Installation]] is a snap and takes only 2 minutes!

/***\n''SearchOptionsPlugin for TiddlyWiki version 2.0''\n^^author: Eric Shulman - ELS Design Studios\nsource: http://www.elsdesign.com/tiddlywiki/#SearchOptionsPlugin\nlicense: [[Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 2.5 License|http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.5/]]^^\n\nThe TiddlyWiki search function normally looks in both tiddler titles and tiddler body content ('text'). However, narrowing the search so that it examines only titles or only text, or expanding the search to include text contained in tiddler tags can be very helpful, especially when searching on common words or phrases. In addition, it is often useful for the search results to show tiddlers with matching titles before tiddlers that contain matching text or tags.\n\n!!!!!Usage\n<<<\nThis plugin adds checkboxes (see below and in AdvancedOptions) to let you selectively configure the TiddlyWiki search function to just examine any combination of tiddler titles, text, or tags. It also provides an option to switch the search results order between 'titles mixed in' (default) and 'titles shown first', as well as an option display the search results as a list of links (in an auto-generated "SearchResults" tiddler), rather than actually displaying all matching tiddlers. You can also enable/disable the "incremental search" (key-by-key searching), so that a search is only initiated when you press the ENTER key or click on the "search:" prompt text.\n<<<\n!!!!!Configuration\n<<<\nIn additional to the checkboxes in AdvancedOptions, a self-contained control panel is included here for your convenience:\n<<option chkSearchTitles>> Search tiddler titles\n<<option chkSearchText>> Search tiddler text\n<<option chkSearchTags>> Search in tiddler tags\n<<option chkSearchTitlesFirst>> Show title matches first\n<<option chkSearchList>> Show list of matching tiddlers\n<<option chkSearchIncremental>> Incremental searching\n<<<\n!!!!!Installation\n<<<\nimport (or copy/paste) the following tiddlers into your document:\n''SearchOptionsPlugin'' (tagged with <<tag systemConfig>>)\n^^documentation and javascript for SearchOptionsPlugin handling^^\n\nWhen installed, this plugin automatically adds checkboxes in the AdvancedOptions shadow tiddler so you can enable/disable the extended search behavior. However, if you have customized your AdvancedOptions, you will need to manually add {{{<<option chkSearchTitles>>}}}, {{{<<option chkSearchText>>}}} and {{{<<option chkSearchTitlesFirst>>}}} (with suitable prompt text) to your customized tiddler.\n<<<\n!!!!!Revision History\n<<<\n''2006.01.15 [2.1.3]''\nAdded information (date/time, username, search options used) to SearchResults output\n''2006.01.10 [2.1.2]''\nuse displayTiddlers() to render matched tiddlers.

The following strategies are suggestions that may work well with ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'':\n#''Talk *to* your students'' - one advantage of ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' is that the instructor no longer needs to turn his or her back on students while writing on the board. Maximize this by looking directly at your students and leveraging popular [[public speaking techniques|http://www.public-speaking.org/public-speaking-articles.htm]].\n#''Discovering vs. covering'' - too many classes are focused on //covering// the course content. Instead, the instructor can take an approach that encourages students to //uncover// and //discover// the content through pre-class preparatory assignments, exploration, and participation. ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' allows for this by not requiring fixed, pre-made slides which favor a //coverage// approach. Instead, the lecture can be constructed and tailored to the needs and comments of the live participants [[on the fly|On the fly]].\n#''Use fill-in lists'' - encourage student participation with any //list-based// information by asking students to supply possible answers. Then write down the ones that are correct.\n#''Check for understanding'' - learning is a like two-way street. Teachers should endeavor to assess student understanding on each major concept before moving on. For example, a new whiteboard slide could be used to present a question or problem for students to solve to assess their understanding. Then the correct answer can be added to the question slide or a subsequent slide to make it available in the downloadable version.\n#''Use diagrams and visual aids'' - the complaint that many students have with pre-made ~PowerPoint presentations is that instructors rely too heavily on text and not enough on other visual representations of content (e.g. tables, charts, graphs, diagrams, and illustrations). ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' allows you to create even complex visualizations manually or by using the available diagrams and grid overlays.\n#''Use a prediction approach'' - //"instruction may take place in a classroom, but learning occurs in the mind"//. One way to leverage this learning concept is by asking students to form a predication of a concept or outcome before the instructor gives the correct answer. By asking students to synthesize and formulate opinions based on the information already presented, they are attempting to actively engage with and utilize the content.\nHere are some additional links to resources on student engagement:\n*[[Meaningful, Engaged Learning|http://www.ncrel.org/sdrs/engaged.htm]]\n*[[Engagement Theory|http://home.sprynet.com/~gkearsley/engage.htm]]\n*[[How to Engage Students in Learning|http://www.nea.org/teachexperience/undk030902.html?mode=print]]\n*Google search on [[engaging students|http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=engaging+students&btnG=Search]]

Tablet-enabled refers to a computer with pen support. Usually, it means either a [[Tablet PC|Tablet PC]] or a computer equipped with a [[tablet monitor|Tablet Monitor]].

''None of the chalk tray buttons work''\nThis is probably due to the fact that the required macros are not enabled in your ~PowerPoint settings. Follow the steps in the [[installation instructions|Installation]] to verify that your macro security settings are configured correctly.\n\n''Students report that they get a warning about macros when they try to open my whiteboard lecture notes slideshow''\nYou should click ''Remove Tools'' option (found by clicking the Tools & Settings button) to remove the chalk tray tools and to erase all the macro code from the presentation ''before'' distributing the file to students.\n\n''The macros in my PowerPoint file are still not being deleted even when I click the Remove Tools button''\nThe action to remove the macros requires access to the Visual Basic Project. Follow the steps in the [[installation instructions|Installation]] to verify that ~PowerPoint macros are given this access.\n

My Tablet PC stylus pen has an "eraser" end. Can I use that instead of the stroke erase tool button?\nYes, many Tablet ~PCs include a stylus that has a writing end and an eraser end. The stroke erase tool is simply included for users who do not have an erasing stylus.\n\nHow can I point to items on the whiteboard without accidentally writing with the pen?\nUse the ''Hand Pointer'' tool to switch the mouse cursor from pen to a hand. Then use the hand in the whiteboard area to point to your content without writing. When you want to resume writing, simply choose a pen color from the palette.\n\nIs there any way to have a highlighter or ballpoint tool instead of the felt tip pen?\nYes, but you must go under the normal ~PowerPoint pointer menu to access the highlighter or ballpoint. The ~PowerPoint pointer menu icon looks like this [img[PowerPoint pointer icon|pointer.gif]] and is present near the lower left corner of the slideshow window ''after'' you haved moved the mouse/pen while in slideshow mode.\nYou can also use this menu to change the highlight color ''after'' you have switched from the pen to the highlighter tool.\nTo switch back to the pen, click again on the pointer icon and choose felt tip pen (thick) or ballpoint pen (thin).\n\nNormally when I use PowerPoint, tapping or clicking the mouse anywhere on the screen will advance to the next slide. Why doesn't this feature work?\nUsers often use the mouse to point to items on a whiteboard as they lecture. If ~PowerPoint advanced the slide, this would become a problem. So the "click to advance" feature is disabled in the whiteboard area. You can still click to advance in the slide title area or in other unused portions of the slide background.\n\nCan I add lines to guide my writing or other items on the whiteboard canvas?\nYes. You can place any image or shape on the slides prior to starting the slideshow, and the object will appear on the whiteboard as you write. In fact, there are several "[[on the fly|On the fly]]" overlays included with ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^''. Simpy click the ''Apply Overlay'' button (it looks like this: [img[apply overlay button|grid.gif]]) during your presentation to bring up a list of available overlay diagrams and guides (see the [[overlay screenshot|overlays.gif]]). \nYou can also create several whiteboard slides in advance of your presentation and place images, charts or other materials on the slides that you will mark up during your lecture.\n\nI see an option called 'auto' listed under the Custom Grid rows and columns settings. What does it do?\nBoth the rows and columns textboxes have an 'auto' option (before the zero setting), but only one can be selected at a time. Basically, the auto option lets you specify the number of either rows or columns, and then the other (i.e. the number of columns or rows respectively) will be determined automatically so as to give a pleasing, square grid.\n\nWhy does the Custom Grid allow for zero rows or columns?\nIf you want to have a true 'grid,' you will probably want to have many rows and columns. However, if you want only writing lines displayed, then you should use 'zero' for the number of columns.\n\nDo my students need to do anything special to get my lecture notes printed as a PowerPoint handout?\nNo. ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' is pre-configured to print out as a handout with six slides per page.\n\nCan I use Tablet Whiteboard™ with the free version of the PowerPoint viewer available from Microsoft?\nNo. It is recommended that you use a full, licensed copy of ~PowerPoint 2003 or later when using ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^''. The free ~PowerPoint viewer application does not support the use of macros that are required for ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' to function.\nIf you want the free ~PowerPoint viewer for other uses, it is available at Microsoft's [[website|http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=428d5727-43ab-4f24-90b7-a94784af71a4&DisplayLang=en]].

During a ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' slideshow, you can tap the help icon <html><img src="helpbutton.gif" alt="help button" align="absbottom"></html> near the the bottom right corner of the slide to bring up [[this help screen|helpscreen.gif]].\n\nThe help screen indicates what version of ''Tablet Whiteboard^^™^^'' you are using, lists some helpful usage tips, and has a link back to this website.\n\nMore usage tips can be found under the [[Frequently Asked Questions|FrequentlyAskedQuestions]].

New ''version <<getversion PptWb>> (<<getversiondate PptWb "MMM DD, YYYY">>)'' now prompts you to confirm both deleting a slide ''and'' erasing all the ink on a slide. This should help prevent accidental loss of information. I have also removed the beta notation from the release since the code has proven to be reliable. \n\n''Note:'' version <<getversion PptWb>> is only compatible with ~PowerPoint 2003 (not 2007). I hope to have a version of ~TabletWhiteboard available for PowerPoint 2007 sometime in the 2009.\n\nSee the full [[RevisionHistory]] for more details.\n\n
