New Teacher Training Resource PagePromethean Training ResourcesEach session will take between 15 to 25 minutes to complete. To complete these activities, start with the Training Flipchart for the session you intend to go through. Within each activity there are hands on portions titled "Your Turn". Follow the directions to complete each "Your Turn" activity. If you have difficulty completing a task, watch the Training Video portion of the section for additional help. Even if you don't have problems, it is a good idea to watch the short video, as they often present a different perspective on the task you are learning. Also, each session may include Additional Resources needed to complete the Your Turn activities. Please download the resources to your home drive or desktop to use them. Finally, there is a Training Handout that you can print for future reference if one is not provided at the training. Have fun and learn hard.At the end of the year, you will receive recertification points or a certificate for the number of hours you completed in this Professional Development series. Currently it is 2 hours. Want to know how you can receive an additional 5 recertification points? See your Technology Resource Teacher.Session 1
