Does Scratch run on an Activboard from Promethean?

Hello I´m Anna,
I´m working with an Activboard from Promethean for some days now and still looking for useful software. Has anyone any experience in using scratch on Activboards?

What are the special experiences for the pupils?

Hi Anna,

You might find it helpful to post your question on our ScratchEd site, which is composed of other educators such as yourself.  In the meantime, I'll forward this on to the Scratch Help desk.
