I started using Smart Draw 3 some 8 years ago. So long in fact that no one at the corporate offices has a copy any more. I lost my copy of Smart Draw 3 missed it so much. Smart Draw is much more than a business drawing programme. It has such amazing educational resources for teachers and pupils alike. The maps alone are worth the cost of the programme. We begin here a series of lenses that attempt to show the scope and power of the software and in many areas.
