Is there a link to documentation about the eduFire teaching platform? I did take a intro class last night and it was great, but if there is a document about the platform, I would like to go over it to better prepare for my first class tomorrow. More specifically, I remember Valarie stating that you can use Power Point Presentations in the platform, but I’m wondering if the same goes for using a Keynote presentation? Thanks for the help.

I don’t think you can use Keynote, but I could be wrong. You might have a shot at googling “Adobe Acrobat Pro Meeting” because that is the platform that loads.

Hey Bakari – Unfortunately Keynote doesn’t work in the eduFire platform (I use Keynote too, it’s great, right?) – has to be .ppt to work properly. Luckily you can export (or “share” as the newer version calls it) to powerpoint, and usually it turns out looking pretty good despite the conversion it has to undergo. That’s what I do for my classes – but yeah, lots of love for keynote!

We definitely need to get some documentation out there for these types of things, and I’ll add it to my list! Thank you!

you can use Keynote in that I believe it saves files as .ppt

I really recommend you come to as many teacher classes as you can, that’ll really help.

In the meantime if you have any questions just ask. :)

Thanks everyone for the feedback. I’ll definitely export the Keynote presentation into ppt and give it a try. Maro, I will also be signing up for additional classes.
