Why slide presentations?
Why slide presentations?
Slides presentations allow students to show their learning with visuals and text. Creating slide presentations causes students to make many decisions about how to call attention to the visuals and text through color, font, style, etc. Students are synthesizing the information that is to be shared through the presentation as they make these design choices.
Presentations usually come with an expectation that students will present their work to an audience, and this practice will strengthen communication skills.
The digital anatomy of a slide presentation allows students to collaborate with others as they work and share their finished work so that it can be used by others to review or pursue further learning.
You might assign a slide presentation when...
you want students to practice collaboration in a digital environment.
you want students to demonstrate an understanding of the topic.
you want students to create shared materials for others to use.
you want students to strengthen written and oral presentation skills.
you want to enhance or replace an assignment that asks students to explain something.
