What is a .FLIPCHART file?
A .FLIPCHART file is a type of file used for making presentations, specifically designed for teachers and educators. It is created using a program called ActivInspire. This program helps teachers to plan their lessons in a fun and interactive way. Inside a FLIPCHART file, you can find different parts of a lesson, like math problems, puzzles with words, and even games like Jeopardy that make learning fun.
To open a .FLIPCHART file, you need to use the ActivInspire software. This software is made by a company called Promethean. Teachers like using ActivInspire because it lets them show their lessons on big interactive whiteboards in the classroom. These whiteboards, such as the ActivBoard Touch, let students touch the board to interact with the lesson, which makes learning more engaging. They can also be used as regular whiteboards where you can write on them.
If you're a teacher but don't have one of these interactive whiteboards, don't worry. ActivInspire has a cool feature that lets you change your FLIPCHART file into other types of files that are more common, like PowerPoint (.PPT), Word documents (.DOC), PDFs (.PDF), web pages (.HTML), or Flash animations (.SWF). This means you can share your lessons in different ways, not just on the interactive whiteboard. To do this, you just need to go to the "Flipchart" menu in ActivInspire, choose "Export," and then pick the type of file you want to change your FLIPCHART into.
Also, it's good to know that sometimes these files might end with .FLP instead of .FLIPCHART, but ActivInspire can open those too.
