Google Slides

Google Slides is an online presentation tool similar to microsoft powerpoint. We will use microsoft powerpoint to create and deliver presentations and for some collaborative activities. To create a new presentation go to slides.google.com. Every presentation you create will automatically be saved in your google drive. You must be logged in to your student email account to use google slides.

Group Presentations

When making a presentation with your group, follow these steps so that everyone can access the presentation.

• Have one group member create a new presentation.
• Click the blue share button in the top right of the screen.
• Enter the school email addresses of your group members, separated by commas.
• Select "can edit" from the dropdown menu.
• Click done.

Now, the document should appear in the "shared with me" folder in the google drives of all the group members you shared it with. Everyone in your group will be able to work on the presentation and all changes made to the presentation will appear in real time.

Collaborative Presentations

Sometimes, Mr Kipp will assign one large presentation and you will need to edit a portion of it, or create your own slide. Follow these steps to edit the presentation.

• Make sure you are signed in to your student email account.
• Request permission from Mr Kipp to edit via email. This is usually done automatically when you try to open the presentation.
• Once you receive permission, the presentation will appear in the "shared with me" section of your google drive.
• Create a slide with the + button at the top left.
• You can now edit your slide. All your work will be recorded under your student email address.
