I am trying something new. Atomic Learning now features direct link sharing to subscribers, so because we have installed 10 new Promethean ActivBoards this year I am embedding links to their ActivInspire videos. (Note: the first three links are active without an Atomic Learning account. You must be logged into AL for the rest of the links to work.) My plan is to direct our teachers to this site as kind of a one stop AL ActivInspire shop. My hope is that readers will find the videos helpful as well as see yet another way blogs can be useful. My fear is that the formatting AL provides in its code make the list look long and intimidating. What do you think?

I hope to explore the ActivInspire options at Atomic learning over the break. I've been looking at Promethean Planet for flipcharts I can use in the library and have met with limited success. I think I probably have to start being more active in making my own. I also have questions about some of the hardware. As usual the issue is time.
