ACTIVstudio Resources:

 

Firstly, you may wish to downland the relevant (Mac or PC) Viewer Software from http://www.prometheanplanet.com/server.php?show=nav.15853

Visit Promethean Planet at http://www.prometheanplanet.com/ ...particularly click on the 'Resources' link/tab (the '11-14/KS3/S1-2' tend to be more ActiveStudio rather than ActivPrimary but either application will work)

Click on any of the files and you will get an 'image preview' of the contents. Should you decide to Register, you will then be able to download and use the file

.

Examples that I have looked at are

• Art ...Tessalations: this shows a nice example of 'drag a copy' (from http://www.prometheanplanet.com/server.php?show=ConResource.17065&20081216014543) ...it also has some nice 'Maths Extension Activities'
• Music ...Graphic Scores (7.8 MB file); shows how 'objects can be erased' ...from http://www.prometheanplanet.com/server.php?show=ConResource.14026
• Music ...Vivaldi's Four Seasons (14 Mb file) from http://www.prometheanplanet.com/server.php?show=ConResource.2685 ..this is a very simple application of 'actions' (but 'simple' does not imply lack of effectiveness! (I wonder about copyright though!)
• Science ...The Heart ...a general presentation and interaction (using Swf files from the Resource Library) ...from http://www.prometheanplanet.com/server.php?show=ConResource.7783
