This window starts up the whiteboard.
It must always be open when the whiteboard is open. Closing this
window will close the whiteboard. You can minimize this window.

When the whiteboard opens you will be able to watch the current
tutoring session. You can watch or you can submit your question
to the tutor.

You now have a live whiteboard that you can write on. Notice all
the buttons along the left side of the board. Click on any button
to select it and click to place it on the board. Most symbols can
be stretched to the size you need, then click again to set the size.
(Just remember Click, Click, Stretch, Click.)

Feel free to practice. No one else can see what you are writing.
Under the heading "Edit" is an "undo" feature
that will remove the last item you put on the board. If you choose
a symbol you don't want you can "clear" by right-clicking
on the mouse. If you get stuck and nothing is working, right-click
to clear. When you are ready click "Submit Your Question"

If the tutor is busy helping another person, you can watch the tutorial
while you wait. Or you can minimize the window and work in another
program. When the tutor responds to your question a bell will ring
to alert you.

Now you and the tutor are linked
through the whiteboard. You can write on the board or in the chat
line at the bottom of the screen. The tutor will immediately see
what you write, and you will immediately see what the tutor writes.
The tutor can answer any questions about how to use the board in
addition to your math questions. The possibilities are practically
limitless. When your tutor session is finished just close the window.
