your ideas? Inspiration is similar to using virtual post-its but much

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.

"My eCoach has been the ideal platform for many of our goals at the Bay Area Foreign Language Program. We use it to share our materials, announcements, and calendars, and the participants in our professional development programs have the opportunity to communicate and share with their colleagues across the Bay Area. This is a wonderful way of developing and supporting our professional learning community."
