**SMART Technologies Training Center

**Teacher Online Training - although there is a subscription fee, you can probably get your principal or PTA to pay it for a couple of months and go through the training library. Maybe save it for the summer when you've got lots of time (yeah, right). The subscription fee is $14.95 for one month and you get unlimited training videos for that month. I think there is a yearly subscription as well. Looks like a look of really fun, useful tutorials.
