This is not just another course on how to create classroom PowerPoint or any other software or app-based presentation. This course asks you to think far outside the average presentation box.
There’s no denying that the tech tools of today are vastly different from those of just 5 years ago. Smartphones, tablets, laptops, and other online-capable devices allow students to access and engage 24/7. They are visually engaged. They are socially engaged. Their attention is getting more difficult to maintain given the instant and exciting use of digital media from others or from their own creativity.
This course is designed to help teachers learn about current software and online presentation tools, revisit some old favorites and how to use these new and old tools to prepare engaging and meaningful classroom presentations. What you learn in this course should be passed on to your students.
