The TRee House on Flikr. What a steep learning curve, but after such a good feed at the Masterclass new Technolgies first day dinner, I can just about cope.

PowerPointless or PowerFull

I once heard it said that powerpoint had become powerpointless in many classrooms.  I have to confess that I too was getting a bit bored of it all, and was thinking surely it can do more for me in the class.  Then I discovered custom animation and VBA for powerpoint!  It has opened a whole new world of possibilities.

 

Imagine powerpoint reading to a student with learning challenges, the text on a powerpoint slide.  Imagine powerpoint asking the student their name?  Imagine powerpoint writing a file on your computer keeping a record of what kids have snwered in a powerpoint quiz!  All is possible!

Welcome to my tree house and to Edublogs.org. There is a great view from up here!  I am hoping that my guests and I can get a great perspective on some of the issues that affect us as educators, facilitators of learning, or teachers… whatever we call ourselves.  There is only one rule however in my tree house…. but I haven’t decided what is it yet.  Once I know I will let you know.
