Question**: What is the training schedule around CDW*G with regard to the Promethean Boards coming into our building? I have heard that there is an online simulation at atomiclearning.com or something of that sort in addition to a train the trainer. Can anyone enlighten? Is there deadline for these simulations? How are they accessed?
 * Answer**: From the CFF Listserve - The following link will take you to a place to do some basic how to's on the Promethean Board. Towards the bottom of the page is a link to a tuturial for the Activestudio (software). This is the software the powers the Promethean board. It is analagous to the Notebook software for the SMART Board.

 * Question**: Is/are there a natural breaking point(s) in Unit 2 on Embedded Learning that would be good times to bring North Penn CFF teachers together as a group to work on?
 * Answer**: From the CFF List Serve - After the student data collection is a good breaking point.


 * Question**: How many quizzes are there in Unit 2?
 * Answer**: It looks like there is only one, but there are three discussion board postings! Technology Reflection, Student Thinking Patterns, and Student Engagement are all discussion topics that must be posted by facilitators in advance and answered by teachers going through the course. (SS)
