Designing Power Point Presentations

Submitted by Anonymous on Sat, 02/21/2009

PowerPoint is a fantastic program that can make your classroom presentations come alive. It is at a basic level an interactive slide show. For advanced users, it can include timed transitions, video clips, and audio elements. A digital projector and a computer can enliven your presentations and make note taking easier. The use of technology also captures and keeps the students (or your audience's) attention.

Submitted by Anonymous on Sat, 02/21/2009

Ever wonder if you and your students could create your own TV news show? Would you like to have announcements and school/class information available to students all class long?

Jane's homework was to practice observing various objects we chose at random—pen, drinking glass, table… At the beginning of the next session, I asked her to read me her written observations.
