Make compatible with Smart Notebook
Your flash files do not work correctly when they are embedded in a smart notebook presentation, teachers would rather use this over powerpoint, so can you make it compatible???
Hi William,
Smart Notebook doesn’t allow you to embed any object that needs to reference the internet. For example you couldn’t insert a web page that would open within your Smart Notebook file. This is the reason our Flash files do not function. They need to be able to “talk” to our servers to populate the visuals and update with “live” results.
Currently the only solution I can see with Smart is to simply link directly to your polls. If you log out of polleverywhere.com the links will pull up each poll in the entire browser window (without your account controls).
Other than that you could ask Smart to provide this type of feature. I probably wouldn’t mention us though, as they sell their own Classroom Response Systems for use with Smart notebook!

Hi William,
Here's a suggestion from another of our threads:
"You can integrate Poll Everywhere with Smart's Notebook software using their Smart Notebook Express Web Application.
1. Once you have created a poll, click on 'Share and Publish' and select 'Download for Prezi'. This will create a flash file.
2. Using the the standard (downloaded) Smart Notebook software open/create a Notebook file.
3. Now click 'Insert' and select 'Flash File'. Find your Poll Everywhere flash file and insert. Once inserted nothing will happen. Don't panic. Save this Notebook file.
3. Now go to Smart's Express Web Application: http://smarttech.com/notebookExpress and open the Notebook file with the Poll Everywhere flash file.
4. It will now work in Smart's online app.It would be great if Smart included an 'insert flash file' in their web app, but I think they are trying to protect their smart response system. Basically, by following the above instructions, you can eliminate the need to buy a Smart Response system :)" - Patrick Fletcher
