Interwrite Chalkboard I. Installing Interwrite Interwrite can be installed from the Teacher Apps folder. Interwrite is located in the Interwrite folder and has two versions, the newest being version 8.01. This will install the workspace and device manager which will allow you to use connect the interwrite board and the workspace will allow you to use the interactive mode, whiteboard mode and office mode. Interactive Mode allows you to control the control (essentially a wireless mouse with much greater range) Whiteboard Mode creates a workspace on the screen that you use like you dry erase board. Office Mode allows you to use the interwrite board with Microsoft Office applications. You can open applications and make changes to them using the board. You can also draw and highlight on the documents you have open. This is the office mode, and here I have used the pen to draw on the Word Doc. The writing is editable in word, so I could remove it or change it. Interwrite Content can be installed from the same folder and is version 3.02. Interwrite content comes with predesigned teaching resources for different curriculum. The content provides images, animations and complete lessons. II. Connecting the Interwrite Board To connect your interwrite board to the computer you will need to install the Bluetooth device in one of the USB ports on the computer. You can leave the Bluetooth installed permanently. You will then need to turn the board on and right click on the interwrite icon in the lower right hand tool bar.

IV. Whiteboard Mode In addition to the interwrite workspace the whiteboard mode allows you to turn your screen into a whiteboard that you can write on with the mouse or the interwrite board.
