3. Explore Training Resources:
D109 Collaborative Team Portal: Log on to staff Intranet, then 'Collaborative Team Portal' in the right sidebar. Next, click on 'Elementary/Middle School Technology Resources' - content is the same for both at this time. Next, scroll down to section titled 'Training Guides' and click on the link titled 'Promethean and ActivInspire Flipcharts.' When the page re-loads, the content of the 'Training Guides' section will be replaced by Promethean resources linked by the district. Two of the linked resources are highly recommended for getting novice users off to a quick start: ActivInspire Quickguide (Step 1 above, last in the list) and ActivInspire Tutorial (5th one down). Copies of these two resources are available for those attending on-site training sessions.
