Help Yourself to Interactive, White Board Activities

This group recognizes that an increasing number of schools are enabling their staff to access interactive, white boards such as Smart Board and Promethium Boards to provide dynamic, interactive, and effective instruction through whole class and individual activities. The goal of this group is to provide a specific place for those individuals to find functional and useful Boardmaker Software Family activities that either were made specifically for these interactive, white boards or have been modified from their original form to be used on these boards. Group will be actively moderated by an Implementation Training Specialist from DynaVox Mayer-Johnson. Active discussion and posting of activities that members have made or found useful for interactive, white boards is encouraged. Please write a short description of how activity was/is used. Thanks!

A file with the ZBP extension is a Board Package that was created using Boardmaker version 6. Boardmaker version 6.0 and higher includes an Import function that will automatically extract the boards from the ZBP file. Open Boardmaker on your computer. From the Boardmaker File menu, select Import. Then select the Board Package option. The Select Board Package dialog will open. Browse on your computer and select the board package (.zbp file) you want to access. Click the Open button on the Select Board Package dialog. The Browse for Folder dialog will open. Select the location where the board package will be saved. (The default location is the My Boards folder on your computer.) Click OK when finished. The .zbp files will automatically extract into a new folder in the location you have specified. The board package can now be opened by clicking Open in the File menu or clicking Open a Saved Board or Add-on on the Open Options screen.
