Using Adobe Acrobat to Create Interactive Documents
By Charlie Morse

Adobe Acrobat is an inexpensive software tool that we have found useful for creating interactive worksheets, multimedia presentations, and assessment instruments in our computer lab at DJ Montague Elementary School.  Relying on the universally available free Reader software and Portable Document Format (PDF), users can manipulate existing documents (irregardless of authoring software) to quickly create interactive documents that relate to classroom lessons.

In this demonstration I include just a handful of the documents the staff and I have created in our school.  We have found Acrobat to be particularly useful in creating on-the-fly interactive worksheets for supporting classroom lessons.
