Project # 4 PPT

Annotation

    The purpose of this project was to create a PowerPoint presentation that could be used for educational purposes. I have used PowerPoint in the past but this project furthered my knowledge of the program. I was able to be creative and pick my own design template and color schemes. I also got to choose the font and font size I wanted. This was a really fun and engaging project for me. I also used Clip Art to insert pictures and animations to engage visual learners and WordArt to create colorful and attention-grabbing facts. I also created links to other pages within my PowerPoint presentation.
    PowerPoint is an extremely useful tool for educators. You are able to create interactice presentations for your students containing text, art, animation, and sound and video clips. PowerPoint engages children and keeps them interested, especially visual learners! PowerPoint is also a great tool for students to use themselves. It is simple enough for them to understand and due to the endless creativity boundaries, the students love it! It is a great way to integrate technology with other subjects!
    The purpose of my specific PowerPoint presentation was to introduce the history, culture and geography of Ireland. I created a Virtual Field Trip to Ireland using PowerPoint and creating links to other pages as well. It was an engaging and great way to integrate technology and Social Studies. Students will learn about the language, history, weather, geography, traditions,  and  everyday life of Ireland.
