Q. What tech requirements are needed to take the courses and use the templates at FlapJack Factory?
The tutorials are shown using PowerPoint 14.6.1 on a Mac. The following is required to get the most out of FJ Factory courses:
- Internet connection
- Basic skills in PowerPoint
- Mac or PC with an updated operating system (please be aware that tutorials are done on a Mac but special instructions are provided for PC users when differences arise)
- PowerPoint 13 or later
- Your own clip art and digital papers (instructions and sites are provided on where to find clip art and digital papers)
Q. Can I use the templates with Keynote or Google Slides?
It may be possible but I do not recommend it as many of the time-saving tips included in the tutorials are for PowerPoint only.
Q. Do you provide clip art and digital papers?
You will receive a $20 voucher to the No Stress Clipart store. The templates however are frameworks and do no include clip art or backgrounds. You will need to provide your own clip art and digital papers to use with the templates. Instructions and websites are provided in each course on how to find clip art for your creation needs.
Q. Are the courses self-paced?
Yes, they are self-paced and you have lifetime access. You can even watch lessons on your phone while working on your creations on the desktop.
Q. Can I sell the resources I make with FJ Factory templates?
Yes! You just need to credit FJ Factory somewhere in your resource or in the description box of your resource if you sell it at Teachers Pay Teachers. Instructions are provided in each course on how to do this. You also need to check the Terms of Use of the clip art and digital papers you are using.
Q. Will FlapJack Factory teach me how to sell at Teachers Pay Teachers?
No. As of right now the focus of FJ Factory is on resource creation, not on selling your resources. Try this handbook by Chris Kesler and also the TpT forum for teacher seller guidance.
Q. What payment methods are accepted?
Payments can be made securely through Stripe with any credit card. Paypal payments are also accepted.
Q. Do I need an internet connection to watch the tutorials?
Yes.
Q. Can I watch the tutorials on my smartphone?
Yes! Instructions are provided on how to watch tutorials anytime on your phone. You can actually watch the tutorials on your phone while putting the lessons into practice on your computer. (Keep cellular data limits in mind.)
Q. Do you sell a school-wide membership to FlapJack Factory?
Yes! Giving teachers the training to create resources to meet the individual needs of their students is an amazing gift and stepping stone to school-wide success! Contact Tabitha at [email protected] for more information.
Q. What's the difference between buying an individual course and FJ Factory membership?
FJ Factory membership is actually a bundle of all the courses together. You get lifetime access to all present and future content. You also get access to a private FB support group. With an individual course purchase, you just get lifetime access to that course. The FB support group is only for FJ Factory members.
Q. If I buy an individual course, can I still purchase FJ Factory membership at a later date?
Yes! Just send an email to [email protected] with your username and the name of the course you have already purchased. That will be subtracted from the overall membership cost. We will process your payment of the remaining amount needed and give you access to all course content and the private FB group.
