PowerPoint Presentation

Mn 510 power_point_week_5[2]

I will utilize Microsoft PowerPoint and survey monkey in my lesson plan. Students are comfortable with technology and prefer interactive classrooms. Educators are adapting to teaching strategies that incorporate technology and focus on active learning (Revell & McCurry, 2010). PowerPoint creates interactive presentations that containing text, art, animation, and audio and video elements. The use of PowerPoint enables the author to the animate words and graphics, add sound effects that captures the students' attention and helps keep them interested. There are variety of presentation types, designs, and layouts to choose from or the author can create and original designs or layouts as well as change colors and color schemes. In addition, the presentation can contain Web art, scanned images, allow for the creation of charts and graphs or hyperlinks (Starr, 2011).

Thanks Nicole
