Getting Started with Interwrite
Workspace
The purpose of this document is to give you a feel for the Interwrite system
by showing you how to select and use a tool in Interactive Mode. The An-
notation Tools of Interactive Mode consist of freehand tools, text tools and
drawing tools. Of the freehand tools, the Pen tool is the most frequently
used Interwrite Workspace Tool. The following pages describe how to select
and configure the Pen tool.
The Interwrite system is at the heart of a successful interactive collaboration,
whether it is in a classroom of fourth graders studying world geography, or in
a boardroom of corporate executives brainstorming a new product launch.
All the tools you will need to stimulate inspiration, connection and participa-
tion can be found in the Interwrite Workspace software. Here’s a quick look
at the Workspace basics to get you started.
