>>Avery: Hey guys this is Avery Roberson and I'm showing you how to use the doceri desktop
and Ipad in connection with your promethean board. So using all three for a great classroom
experience. [pause]
The first step is to download the doceri desktop onto your laptop. You must go to doceri.com.
Once you go to doceri.com click the download tab at hte top of the page.
[pause] Now you will see a bunch of options that you
can choose. You can go the app store and download it on your tablet. If you scroll down further,
you'll see options to downlaod the software for either Mac or Windows, depends on your
operating system. In addition, all of this is free of charge.
[pause] After you download the app and software you
want to go back to your ipad. You see at the top right of my screen the doceri app. Click
on the app. [pause]
Once you click on the app this screen will pop up. There are two options to run doceri
either from the ipad alone or through a computer. Select through a computer.
[pause] After you click on the option this screen
will appear. The code at the top is uniquely set for you laptop. This is how the Ipad connects
to the laptop. Now go back to your desktop screen and click
on the doceri icon. [pause]
I have laot of desktop icons, but I'm going to circle the icon so you can see what the
app looks like. Now click on the desktop icon. [pause]
THis screen shows that our desktop and ipad are now connected. The Ipad goes through your
wireless connection to you laptop and then connects to your promethean board. Now you
can control powerpoint presentations and other media through your ipad.
[pause] Now let me show you some neat things this
app can do. This a powerpoint that I use in my class. It's a lesson on probability. This
is a great way to interact with your kids. You can walk around the classroom making sure
kids are on task, while controlling the powerpoint through my ipad.
[pause] For another example, lets say you are going
through the powerpoint and would like for some students to write on the powerpoint.
You can easily freeze the screen. (Reading the problem)
You can easily write on this page. (Writing multiple answers) After you have recorded
the answers from your kids, you can go back to the powerpoint and reveal the correct answer.
This can be used easily when going through a powerpoint.
[pause] Another great example you can use with the
doceri app is for your warm up or starter problem. I use powerpoint slides or usatestprep
bellringers all the time. Instead of having the kids come up to the promethean board they
stay in their seats and use the Ipad. The kids really enjoy this. This is good for students
who don't want to come to the board and still feel engaged in the classroom. This is an
example of what the completed. [pause]
This is basically how you can use the doceri desktop and the different things that it can
do. Let me exit out of everyhting and have a good one. Take care.
