"Inspiration 8 is more user-friendly, more interactive and much more connected to other learning resources. This software will help our students use graphic organizers to process new skills and enhance our teaching processes." "Inspiration just gets better and better. This program now covers much more educational territory. The added curriculum units will help educators realize its value for presenting and organizing information. This is a great teaching tool as well as a wonderful learning and thinking tool for students." "Inspiration 8 is a wonderful enhancement to what was already a first class product. Inspiration is easy to work with, but challenges my students to think logically and helps them improve their problem solving skills. This program is a great tool for both my teacher education students and their students." "The Word Guide is one of the most significant new features of Inspiration 8. The combination of dictionary, thesaurus and pronunciation guide will not only help students find the exact word they are looking for, it will also build their vocabulary." "You've done it again. The enhancements in Inspiration 8 are solid. I will continue to recommend to teachers and administrators that Inspiration is a must in their toolbox."

By using Inspiration, it’s easy to brainstorm and then, with one click of a button, they have an outline for a story, an essay or a simple research paper. This difficult job is reduced to an enjoyable task that they can accomplish with minimal assistance." "Inspiration energizes my students to think, organize and create. It is a handy tool that helps students break barriers and leads them to success." "Inspiration is a dynamic program that allows students to incorporate new information at any time.

"Inspiration has addressed the needs of a generation of visual learners. My students enjoy using the program to create visually appealing diagrams for projects and presentations." "Teaching history is not just a matter of getting students to memorize dates. I want them to have thorough understanding of what happened in the past and why. Inspiration is a great tool for that because it helps students organize their material in different ways." "Inspiration's Transfer tool is an important feature that adds value for the end user and presents a number of possibilities for classroom implementation." "Inspiration is indispensable for technology planning at the district level; meanwhile, students use it for pre-writing, project planning and presentations. It is the best all-around tool in which a school district can invest."
