More on Power Point Presentations

I had never imagined how many things you can do with Power Point Presentations!

I didn't know there is the possibility of getting the chance to look for so many different and eye-catching templates and animated gifts.

Last lesson was highly motivating, and I think we were given useful tools to start planning our lesson making use of this Software.

For the first lesson of my teaching practices, I designed a Power Point Presentation to introduce the vocabulary of the unit "The Cinema". Now, I know how this presentation could have been improved. It is also really important to take into consideration how you will use it... Will you have the presentation projected? or will they work with it in their computers? I made that mistake, I designed a presentation to be projected but I made them work with it in their computers.

The templates were too plain and the games were not as attractive as the ones we -Agustín and I- designed for our second practical work. I was also highly surprised by the games my partners found on the net designed for power point presentations. Maybe, if I  had known about them for my teaching practices, I would have use them or try to improve this very first PP Presentation, which was like the "window" of my teaching practice.

The impact could have been greater if the Power Point Presentation would have been much more attractive, I guess.

Power Point presentations

I have high expactations regarding this new unit on "Power Point" presentations. I consider it could be very useful for  us, because it is a technological tool that doesn't need an internet connection.

I do think, that we need to be highly creative in the classroon when using this tool, if not we will be wasting our energies and no real profit will result from the use of this tool.

So, I'm ready to work hard on this!!
