Advance+Presentation+and+Collaboration

Welcome to an exciting summer in-service course where we will be discussing, experiencing, and producing presentations for our classrooms and seeing how collaboration websites can enhance our students’ learning. We will be using many different sites to post our work, so we can experience first hand what our students will experience as they complete the assignments you will be giving them during the school year. Some will be easier and work better for you than others, so you will have to decide which one you will present your final course project on. We will also be using different forms of presentation software. Again, some will be easier than others. Luckily, they are all free, so you can explore without any undo pressure.

= Day One =

Here is information from Day One. Some of the embedded videos might not work. Send me an email if you want me to send a copy to you. Day Two Here is information for Day Two sent in an email Monday evening. The videos are too large to include here. The files will be emailed or flash drived to you if you need them. Youtube videos were converted for use in the buildings by typing kick in front of youtube, making it kickyoutube. At the top of the screen, I selected mpg4 and then clicked on the right... green GO button. The GO button turned into a blue DOWN button which was then clicked. Viola, the youtube video can now be saved onto the computer, and shown at school. This will be demonstrated in class.
