I don't understand how to upload flipcharts. Can I upload them straight from the planet or do I have to download them to my personal computer and then upload them?
The flipchart should download automatically to the My Flipcharts folder on your computer then you will be able to access it from your Resources Browser. When I download a flipchart, I like to choose "Open with Inspire", instead of selecting save. This way I can see if the flipchart is really something I will use then I can choose to save it or not.
Good luck,
LC
With the Activinspire software do I have any objects in the resource library or do i have to download them all?
Erin, ActivInspire's resource library comes with thousands of resources. Be sure you download the Subjects file. The Resource Packs are extra resources.
A few days ago I was ale to view over 2,000 flipcharts for download on this site for science. Now when I go to lessons I don't see anything. The results say there are none. What happen to all the flipscharts? If they moved will someone help me find them? Thanks!
Katherine, I saw, too, that yesterday, no results were showing in searches. Haven't check yet today but hopefully it has been resolved.
New page seems much more time costly! I liked the old select lesson- grade-topic--- Am I missing this page? Was on the video but not on my home page.
I cannot access any flipcharts. Every search I do comes back with no results even though I know there are flipcharts I have previously located using the same seach keywords. What am I doing wrong?
OK, I'm a real newbie, but why can't I see the preview of the resource I'm looking at?
Julie: This issue should be resolved. Please let us know if you continue to experience problems.
Marsha: With the new Planet, we've provided several additional ways to search for resources, which should yield even more accurate results than those you are used to seeing. Take a look at the Resources section of the Planet Guide for some great tips on quickly finding what you need: community.prometheanplanet.com/.../resources.aspx.
Melinda: Most of the resources should have a preview associated with them, but we are investigating some that are not showing a preview. Which resource are you trying to preview?
Refering back to an earlier post how exactly do I get to the resource library to download the subjects file? I am new with lots to learn.
Here is the link to the download page for ActivInspire's Resource Library. (English-US) support.prometheanplanet.com/server.php
Where do I go to do a search by state standards. On the old site you could go to advanced search, and it would take you there.
