Inanimate Alice invades Promethean Planet
Promethean Planet is the world's largest online community of educators giving teachers around the world access to share free resources as well as purchase low-cost premium interactive lesson materials and software. It also provides a platform for educators to communicate, collaborate and learn through user groups, blogs and other forums, including a library, containing thousands of useful tips.
Here at 'Inanimate Alice' we embrace Promethean's aim of unlocking the potential of human achievement in education and training at all ages. We were delighted to be asked to create a Community/User Group around the title where resources and experiences may be shared. What is particularly exciting about this development is the prospect of building a home for all of the user generated content inspired by the series. We have enjoyed so many stories that have been developed by students; so many great ideas, such enthusiasm. We are thrilled that we have found just the right place where they can be accessed and experienced by teachers and students from around the world. Beyond the classroom, Promethean's established teacher community provides a vehicle for teachers to discuss practical advice on using collaborative technologies with other members.
Promethean Ethos
Promethean believes that technology holds the power to unleash the potential of human achievement. As the global leader in learning technology, Promethean combines innovation, real-world experience, scientific insight and thought leadership to help realize the fullest potential of every instructor, presenter and student everywhere—from the classroom to the boardroom to any space where information, collaboration, and global citizenship must meet.
Promethean developed the ActivClassroom to bring our vision of more engaged, successful education to life, and believe that this reality of an active, 21st century learning experience can empower people everywhere to reach higher levels of individual and collective achievement. Easily implemented and simple to learn, the ActivClassroom is a 360-degree, technology enabled, learning environment comprising interactive white boards, learner response systems, software, training and professional development, resources and instructor communities all proven to improve educational results.
Everloop provides kids under 13 a free, safe space where they can connect with friends, play games, share pictures, send messages, discover new talents and learn. Everloop's innovative social "looping" technology lets kids communicate with friends directly around their interests such as sports, music, reading, fan groups, games and more.
No other social platform on the market today offers as many real-time communications, content-sharing, and collaboration features designed specifically for kids. State-of-the-art privacy protection and monitoring guard against bullying, bad language and sharing of private information. Everloop partners with leading innovators to provide top-shelf entertainment and educational activities. Kids get to be in the loop and parents get peace of mind.
The early episodes of 'Inanimate Alice' have been designed to be experienced by storytelling and story-sharing students in those tween years. Everloop provides an exciting yet safe environment for literacy exploration, making it the platform of choice for this target audience.

Our thanks go to Education Services Australia for their interest in and support for the project. Teachers in Australia are amongst Alice's most enthusiastic supporters. We look forward to connecting all the more closely in the future.
