Using ClassScape with the SMART Response System 10/6/2009 This documentation details how to use a ClassScape based assessment with SMART Notebook and the SMART Response clickers. These details are based on Notebook version 10.0.522.2. In order to get started users (teachers) need to set up an Assessment in SMART Notebook that will be used while the teacher navigates through a ClassScape assessment. This documentation will refer to this process as a parallel test. Assumptions of this document: 1) Users know how to create/setup ClassScape assessments. Also, users setting up a ClassScape assessment intending to integrate with SMART will have created a ClassScape assessment registration. 2) Users know how to use SMART Notebook, Teacher Tools, and SMART Response clickers. 3) ClassScape and SMART technology will only be used for multiple-choice assessments. Contents: 1) Setting up the parallel test in SMART Notebook 2) Administration of the test a. Intending to integrate into ClassScape including how to upload data back to ClassScape b. As a stand-alone assessment 1
Setting up a parallel test in SMART Notebook* for ClassScape *NOTE: These instructions were developed based on SMART Notebook version 10.0.522.2 and Model No. 03-00098-20B SMART Response clickers. Requirements: 1. ClassScape assessment MUST only contain Multiple Choice items 2.

From the SMART Notebook application create a new Notebook File by clicking File > New. 2. Click the SMART Response tab on the left hand side. Next, click the Title Page icon. 2
3. In the Insert Title Page popup, provide appropriate information in Title / Type fields. Users could insert the same name in the Title field that the ClassScape assessment is named.

Click Add a question to the next page from the SMART Response tab (in the Summary section) 5. In the Insert Question popup, select Multiple Choice as the type of question to insert, then click the Next> button. 3
