2. GTCO Interwrite Schoolpad : wireless electronic tablet electronic stylus rocker arm on stylus = left or right mouse button writing and drawing tools approx $ 450

3. USE OF ELECTRONIC TABLETS IN CASE STUDIES http://www.gtcocalcomp.com/interwriteschoolsuite_casestudies.htm

4. Examples of uses of the tablet : 1). Portable overhead projector : filling in missing parts of textbook figures 2). Annotation of any Windows screen : writing & drawing tools 3). Drag-and-drop matching exercises in Powerpoint create mode 4). Making audio/video recordings of lectures or Internet animations

5. Portable overhead projector Replacing missing elements of textbook figures

6. Use Microsoft Windows PAINT program to edit textbook figure Eraser tool

7. Write glucose, Na+, K+, ATP, or ADP at the beginning and end of each arrow.

8. Put values of Ka ( 7 x 10-3 , 1 x 10-7 , 5 x 10-13 ) into the table.

9. Complete the two graphs for the reaction X  Y in the presence of a catalyst.

10. ADVANTAGES : 1). Don’t have to go back and forth between computer projected Powerpoints and overhead projector transparencies 2). Students feel more anonymous (not standing at overhead projector facing their classmates 3). Better projection (overhead may be smaller, or skewed and out of focus in some regions)

11. ANNOTATION OF ANY WINDOWS SCREEN

12. new functionality : annotations made with the tablet tablet’s tool bar red pen selected

13. choose pen color choose line thickness choose pen function : draw a box box added with the tablet

14. DRAG AND DROP EXERCISES : in Powerpoint creation mode

15. Arrange the planets in order of increasing distance from the sun. Work in the order of the visible spectrum : green -> yellow -> red . Correct answers will cover up the colored spot. SUN

16. Three pictures ORDER Picture (at green) front (top) back (bottom) Picture (at yellow) Picture (at red) Three target locations

17. BIOCHEMISTRY FLASHCARDS PROJECT • Commercial set (Vis-Ed) • Paper version : Business card stock paper, 11x17 templates • Electronic tablet : drop-and-drag Powerpoint • Electronic tablet : Flash animation

19. COMPLETED PATHWAY 11 structures : white 10 enzymes : blue 5 favorable energy factors : yellow 4 unfavorable energy factors : red 5 comments : orange

20. Arrange molecular structures in their order in glycolysis. Work in the order of the visible spectrum : green-yellow-orange-red. When ALL choices are correct, all the spots will disappear. HINT : glucose does not have a phosphate P group. glucose

21. FLASH PLAYER VERSION : by Don Trainor

22. Top sides Bottom sides Match a base to G at lower left. Small goes with large. Donor (NH) goes with acceptor (N: or O:). A = , C= , G= , T=

23. CNBr cuts on right side of Met (brown) Trypsin cuts on right side of Lys or Arg (red)

24. METHOD OF OVERLAPPING PEPTIDES Fragments made by CNBr (cuts on right side of brown type) Fragments made by trypsin (cuts on right side of red type)

25. MAKING AUDIO-VIDEO RECORDINGS Video : anything happening on your computer screen Audio : speak into a microphone attached to your computer Applications : Copying Internet animations that can’t be downloaded Taping your lectures

27. Tablet window : start and stop the recording Animation with small size : not adjustable not able to download Tablet window : select full or partial screen capture

28. WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER : with 2x expansion view - video size - 200%

29. Insert movie into Powerpoint : then expand size to full scale http://www.tvdsb.on.ca/westmin/science/sbioac/biochem/condense.htm

30. UB’s technology classrooms : Current : University will generate audio tape recording of your lecture Instructor generates a beeping sound when changing Powerpoint slides Audio file and Powerpoint lecture file posted at course web site Students download the two files and try to synchronize beeps and slides Spring ’08 : University will generate an audio tape of the lecture, and generate a video tape of everything projected from the computer, and synchronize audio with video to make a movie Movie posted at course web site Electronic tablet : 3 mb / min = 150 mb / lecture Almost too large to download from home with slow modem Powerpoints with embedded audio tracks : 10 mb for textbook figures 40 more mb for sound tracks 50 mb / lecture : either 3 CD’s, or 1 DVD

31. DNA movie : taped using Rastop modeling program

32. ADDING ANIMATIONS TO POWERPOINT • Taping your own voice • Traveling cursor • - movies viewed at home can look like classroom lectures • Mimicking “smart-board” effects (also given by the tablet tools) • - window shade effect • - spotlight

33. RECORDING SOUNDTRACKS WITHIN POWERPOINT

35. ANIMATION SEQUENCE Play a sound track Dissolve in a rectangle Play a movie (.avi) Slide the rectangle along a line Play a sound track Dissolve out the rectangle

36. Based on insert (Ch 3), p. 57, Pratt & Cornely, Wiley (2004)

37. WINDOW SHADE EFFECT : PROGRESSIVELY DISSOLVE OUT GRAY STRIPS “household appliances”

38. SPOTLIGHT EFFECT : THE DONUT SHAPE Drag yellow point to shrink or expand the center

40.
