Smartboard resources on Promethean board?

[ellisteph10]

Hi,

 

We have a new teacher who has lots of Smartboard resources, we have Promethean boards - see the problem

 

Is Smartboard software easily gettable to run using a Promethean board?

 

Thanks

Ellis

I'm afraid you cannot run SMART Notebook on anything other than SMART interactive boards.

 

As far as I know, if you have Promethean Inspire, you can import SMART Notebook files and then save them as .flipchart files. http://www.edugeek.net/forums/educational-software/4174-smart-promethean-conversion.html#post601824

Excellent! Thanks for that.

Smart Notebook lessons are easily converted to Flipcharts for use with Promethean software and Activboard.

 

Open Inspire

Click on file > import > Smart Notebook

 

Browse your computer for the file and double click it. Inspire will convert it into a flipchart.

You are meant to purchase a licence from Smart if you want to do that.

If you have Promethean resources already can they be used on a Smartboard? We are looking at moving away from Promethean to Smart!

You will need licences to do so.
