This looks like allot of great software for teachers. I don't know if this applies/works outside of the UK or if there are other restrictions, etc, but it you're a teacher or educator, especially in the UK, it can't hurt to try to get this, right? Hard to beat free...

  1. Thanks for this. I went through the list of tools on the MSFT site and parsed them out to teachers at my school appropriately. I think the whole package might be overwhelming but in chunks it could be quite useful. This is a good example of the things that Microsoft employees create that get lost sometimes even though they are amazingly useful.
