More changes to TurningPoint – take action this month
On 31 December, the desktop software will be upgraded to a new version to enable it to continue working. If you use it in your teaching, animated charts may need switching to a different format so they appear correctly and don’t crash your PowerPoint presentation.
The application will be different in look and feel but layout and functionality will be the same – apart from the change which means flash content (affecting some of the animated charts) will stop working.
For more information about the changes, running the new system and how to prepare for the upgrade, please see our blog article.
