Project 1 - Multimedia Presentation Showcasing Best Practices

For this project, we had to redesign a poorly designed and executed multimedia presentation on Educational Technology. The original presentation contained too much text and the presenter read off the slides. This project shows the role of science and technology specifically in India.

Project 2 - Social Bookmarking and Content Curation

For this project we used Scoop.It! for the curation of content. Our task was to gather information relevant to a particular topic or area of interest. I chose to curate articles pertaining to the use of Virtual Labs in Science Education.

Project 3 - Social Media Leader Presentation (Script)

For this project, we created a structured script to show how social media can connect the workplace. My project discusses how Twitter can be used to form a community of Educators to collaborate and share ideas on Virtual Labs in Science Education.
