If students have SMART Notebook™ SE collaborative learning software 1.6 or
later on their computers, all collaborative files open in new tabs in SMART
Notebook SE and students' work is saved to their binders automatically.
Each group includes one student responsible for submitting the group’s final response.
SMART Sync selects this student randomly.
