Today’s student expects to be unleashed to create a presentation that fits their swag. Fortunately for teachers, there is a growing list of fantastic (and free) web-based tools for students to use.
Activity Objectives:
The camper will:
- Explore some different presentation tools as outlined at http://mvtrainings.weebly.com/presentation-tools.html
- Choose a tool to create a sample presentation. (You may wish to make your presentation something that you can use in class)
- Create an account with your chosen presentation tool
- Create a presentation that includes text, still pictures and embedded video
- Embed or link the presentation to your blog
- Post a reflection of the tool for others to see
- Comment on 3 other campers’ presentations and/or posts
Well, I just about lost my mind with Prezi. Unfortunately, I was not able to get to Highview for help, but I think I got this figured out after 4 tries. It is very similar to making a Smartboard presentation except I could not get it to put in a photo from my computer or on-line unless it was a jpeg or pdf file. Yesterday I could not get it to let me edit the presentation after I had to walk away from it. I have survived - I may have grayer hair, but I did it.
