As a note, guys, if you haven't already started the training, you should know that you can only get the emulator now, as they're out of the Prizm calculators. I still very strongly encourage you to do the training to learn more about the Prizm and be able to use the emulator, however. _________________

Looks like I should have settled down and gotten the course done more quickly!

They're out of Prizms! And I was going to finish the last assessment tonight, too :/ Oh well, I learned quite a bit about that calculator; enough that I can actually use it in class now. |
Same. Did anyone choose to get the full version? Is it a one-install thing? _________________ °ᴥ° Get Lucky

Elfprince: Nice job being the third person to post that in this thread. You should indeed have settled down!
Caleb: I'm sorry to hear that you're crushed.
AHelper: I think Ashbad (?) was thinking of getting the emulator, he might know. _________________

Ok. Just wondering if it will install and run under wine as the trial makes itself expire right away. _________________ °ᴥ° Get Lucky

I'll be interested to know what you discover if you do indeed follow through and get the emulator. _________________

Indeed, I saw that update, plus the limitation that it can only be taken by teachers rather than both students and teachers. Although if you're a teacher and still don't have a Prizm for math and/or programming, I strongly encourage you to apply! _________________

Seems like they're alternating between different free-calculator promotions. I guess they really want to get these Prizms and ClassPads out there in schools. _________________

That's strange, I notified them that I was a Student, and they Still are letting me do the course, I imagine that if you let them know you're a student and ask permission that they would let anyone do it, and give them the emulator for PC at the end; maybe I just "slipped" through a crack though i'm not sure _________________
