Slideshare.net

Slideshare.net could be added as a terrific final product for a research project that would take the PowerPoint presentation to another level! I think audio enhances any presentation and would allow the viewer to “hear” the presenter’s findings – but many times pictures say it all and audio is not necessary.

Slideshare.net could be used for products that were purely informational or even those that are supporting opinions on topics. Any curricular area would be able to use this in so many different ways.

As always, inappropriate content would be the major concern for use with students. There is always the issue of it being accessible on the school web as well – is the firewall going to block it? I think this is a really great tool and will be back to use it again. I used a font in the title that they do not support as it was skewed when uploaded – oh, well.
