Beaverbrook Elementary - Mimio Core Skills II - March 18, 2014

Inserting files- You can use files (Word docs, PPT's, PDF's, images, multimedia, etc...) that you have already created, in Mimio Studio Notebook. This is a great feature because you and your students can see the whole document and annotate right over it, anywhere on it.  Click here to see a brief video of the 3 methods of inserting your files.

"Screen Clipping"- This is how you can capture ANY image and bring it into Mimio Studio. If you can see it on your computer screen, you can clip it. You can even use the free-form tool to capture JUST the image without the background. This video refers to Mimio version 8. However, you perform the task the same with version 11. Don't forget, if you want the image to remain static on your Notebook page, "Lock" the image. Use the "Selector" tool to select your object. Then, in the menu bar at the top of the page, click "Format", "Locking" then "Lock". 

"Screen Annotation" - You can use the Mimio tools to annotate over Word, PDF's, or sites from the Internet. Any time you perform the screen annotation function, it is automatically saved in your Gallery. Once your screen annotation file is in your Gallery, you can drag it into your Notebook file. To exit screen annotation mode, just click the "mouse" icon, next to "annotation" icon. 

"File Attachment" - You can attach files right into your Notebook file. They become a part of the Notebook file; similar to attaching a file to an email. You can drag attached files into your Notebook software or open the files separately to annotate over them.
