toc ICSD teachers use SMART Boards in classrooms to engage and motivate students, appealing to various learning styles while promoting visual literacy. Because ICSD has SMART Boards in our schools, you can download the SMART software for free to your classroom or personal computer. __You will need a product key to complete the installation__ (contact Roger or your school's technology mentor for assistance).
