Presentation Tips PPT
This was a great PowerPoint presentation that provided plenty
of tips on how to make a “good” PowerPoint presentation. In fact, I used the
slides while I created my presentation of my tutorial highlights. I enjoyed the
good and bad examples as this was a great refresher. I never thought of adding
a question slide, but it now makes sense because you do not want to abruptly
end your presentation without any follow up. I also added an outline slide at
the beginning so my viewers knew what was in store for them before starting the
presentation. I use to love adding animation and pictures all over my slides
when I was younger, but now I understand that it takes away from the
information you are presenting. Overall, this was a great PowerPoint to view
before making our final tutorial highlight presentation for this course.
Kid Pix and PowerPoint Games Resources
My students often use Kid Pix in their technology class during their specials rotations. We have a wonderful technology teacher that instructs our students on various programs such as Photo Shop, Kid Pix, PowerPoint, Kidspiration, etc. My students enjoy Kid Pix because there are numerous art tools and they can be very creative. Also, text can be added fairly easily to any picture they create or draw on Kid Pix. This link had plenty of projects that were created with PowerPoint and Kid Pix. I really enjoyed how they turned the students’ individual projects into books! There are numerous great ideas that I will have to keep in mind as we approach the end of the school year.
Lindsay,
ReplyDeleteI also found the presentation about how to create an effective PowerPoint presentation helpful. Not only do I look forward to referring to if for myself, I also look forward to sharing it with my students. I'm glad to hear that it was so helpful for you when putting together your tutoring presentation. I will be referring to it when I put together mine. It is great that your students have so much exposure to Kid Pix in their specials class. I am not familiar with the program; however, after seeing all that it has to offer in this module, it is a program I want to become more familiar with and utilize in my classroom.
