This is an opportunity for the Level One (Knowledge Level) or Level Two (Instructional) person who is interested in using software to brainstorm, develop concept maps and design flowcharts. Inspiration is an amazing program that is easy but powerful to use. Do you use post-its for brainstorming or sketch your ideas? Inspiration is similar to using virtual post-its but much more. All your ideas can be exported to other programs so you can expand on your thoughts. Create an activity using Inspiration that you can use with your students. Review curriculum and align activity to content standards.

This eCoach opportunity is best bundled together with other opportunities in an institute with a focus on a particular curriculum area, grade level, or projects or as coaching as part of your staff development program. Inspiration works well as a brainstorming tool for writing or presentation projects. We can work with your coaches so they can offer this opportunity onsite at a separate fee. Our coaches will include relevant eCoach guides as part of any opportunity or purchase any guide separately.
