Well, let me just say that I LOVE power point. We go way back. This is pretty much my only means of teaching. I like it because you can get text and images in the same place, which benefits both visual and textual learners. The first time I used power point, I was in graduate school and I swear it was the hardest thing ever to do. Probably because I was flatbed scanning all of my images and it took forever. Now, after 6 years of teaching, I think I'm much better at it. However, I did learn some things with this example. I have never made a power point like it before. I usually alternate text and images and include a lot of text from chapters we are studying. This time, I figured out how to insert text boxes and write on the images themselves. You can also insert a Jing image here to include more involved diagrams if you cannot find any online. I agree with the professor to not waste time on fancy transitions. That just seems superfluous and distracting. I can't say whether I like this way better or not. It takes longer, and I feel it may take away from the images themselves. But, if you are an online teacher, this is optimal because you won't be there face to face. I hope my power point was educational to you. I enjoyed creating it and plan to use it in my course this fall!
ISTE-NETS connected with this assignment would be:
Facilitate and Inspire Student Learning and Creativity
a. promote, support, and model creative and innovative thinking and inventiveness.
b. engage students in exploring real-world issues and solving authentic problems using digital tools and resources.
c. promote student reflection using collaborative tools to reveal and clarify students' conceptual understanding and thinking, planning, and creative processes.
a) Power point does require a modicum of inventiveness. You want to be informative, and yet keep your audience engaged.
b) Power Point is a real tool used in the everyday world. It is beneficial for students to become acquainted with this early, as they could use it in just about any career field. It is an easy way to present information in a myriad of different ways in a short amount of time.
c) I like the part about conceptual understanding and planning. Students have to be aware of a certain flow of slides, and how they communicate relevant information to their audience. Power point presentations should be cohesive and comprehensive.
Design and Develop Digital-Age Learning Experiences and Assessments
a. design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity.
b. develop technology-enriched learning environments that enable all students to pursue their individual curiosities and become active participants in setting their own educational goals, managing their own learning, and assessing their own progress.
c. customize and personalize learning activities to address students' diverse learning styles, working strategies, and abilities using digital tools and resources.
a,b) Not only is power point a presentation tool, it can also be used as a study aide. Students could do away with flash cards and make a power point.
c) As stated before, with Power Point learners of different types are reached. Visuals have images, auditory learners have lecture, "textual" learners have text.
