Technology in the Classroom: A Professional Blogfolio

For this task we were asked to find a slideshow on www.slideshare.com and discuss why it is or isn’t a good example of a presentation. Our other option was to recreate a presentation that we have used in the past applying the new knowledge we have been given. I chose to comment on someone else’s presentation entitled “The Presentation Alphabet.”

I thought the idea behind this quick slideshow was neat. As a future classroom teacher I appreciate the use of the alphabetized “rules” for creating an interesting and engaging presentation. Most, if not all, of the suggestions given were realistic and stated very simply. Each slide followed the same basic format with the letter, the suggestion using alliteration, and a creative illustration supporting the text. All of the fonts were easy to read and the arrangement of the text and illustrations were visually pleasing.  What I liked most about this presentation is its’ simplicity. It was nice to see how this powerpoint followed it’s own “rules!”
