Today we were told about our PowerPoint Activity assignment. We're putting together a "how to" on making an interactive PowerPoint. This will eventually be part of our assignment.
I think PowerPoint will be one of the programs that I will use the most in my future classroom. It's a great way to provide visual aspects to your lesson. However, I don't know much about how to make an interactive slideshow. I'm excited to learn more because I feel that it will be very beneficial in my future. PowerPoint slideshows are used in so many professions and presentations. In other words, the knowledge that I am learning will help me no matter what I end up doing in my future and will be especially helpful as a teacher.
I think having interactive slideshows will be very helpful in a classroom. When I was in high school we would play Jeopardy games as a review for a test and I found this to be not only fun, but also beneficial. Especially today, where so many students are consumed with technology, having something that they can actually play around with will help a lot of them understand the concept better. I can see myself using slideshows as a review but also having them as homework or requiring students to come up with their own. There are so many directions and areas that you can take PowerPoint slideshows.
