Our school began its IWB adventure with Smartboards. However, despite good local service, when problems were escalated to the US support team, we wouldn’t hear from them for weeks while the boards sat unusable. Therefore, after our first year of the pilot, we began switching to Promethean boards.<\/p>\n
Our local vendor allowed us to swap x number of Smartboards for every y number Activboards that we purchased. By next year, we’ll only have one Smarboard left. I left it because the new teacher in that room won’t be using it. That will allow me to swap it out the next year for free if all goes as planned.<\/p>\n
However, that’s meant that this year I was trying to support teachers using two different platforms. Earlier this year I’d heard that you could open Smart notebooks on an Activboard. By the time we got around to following up, the place I’d originally read it had pulled the info, but one of my teachers gave it a try and voil\u00e1! It worked. We were using Smart Notebook 9, not the new 10, but this now gives us even more options for ready made flipcharts.<\/p>\n
Has anyone else had success using the notebooks\/ flipcharts cross platform?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
