Suggestions for using Digital Presentation
Transcript: Suggestions for using Digital Presentation Introduction In the modern world, new ways of teaching and helping the students to learn more and relevant materials in a shorter period of time are some of the main concepts educationists and researchers are working upon. The integration of creatively using technology in education has been one of the main challenges to experts. Learning by watching, listening, reading online, or doing are the new techniques that need to be promoted in primary as well as secondary levels of education. One of these digital ways is a digital presentation that can be created and even taught online such as using google slides. Technological use can prompt the students to become more active and participate in the learning process if the use of technology is done creatively which may spark the interests of students. (Fratto, 2011). Use of Slides/Digital Presentation All the given options for promoting active learning in the classroom and helping students not to lose interest in the activities are important and can improve the process; however, digital presentation is the better of them. Different technological techniques such as digital presentation not only enhance students’ learning ability but also increase their interest in the activities. According to Holmes et al., (2015), if the students are asked to use their free time in learning through digital means which may diverse and increase their knowledge about the subject, they can use their classroom time in interactive learning and exploring new technological ways to discuss complex points about their subjects. Digital Presentation could be the best tool in the classroom to use in such situations. (Holmes, et al., 2015). Topic 1 Starting Point of Digital Presentation Learning technology is important for students of all grades and on all levels; however, there should be stages for introducing technology in teaching. For instance, students on the primary level may find it hard to comprehend the meanings of using photos in slides along with or without texts (ABartsch & MCobern, 2003). Students at the secondary level may have the ability to use the combination of graphs, photos, and texts together in slides. Thus, it may be better to use only texts or simple photos and graphs on slides made for the students on the primary level. Topic 2 Text As it is said that for the active learning activity, Digital Presentation is to be used. Though there are several methods to be used online such as google slides, I would use free Prezi templates. Google slides can be a better choice as well; however, for saving our time and using the already made templates, it is easy and better to use Perzi free templates. (Prezibase, n.d.). Technology to be used in Presentation Pictures Activity Outcome This activity because of its uniqueness will be helpful for the students and may play an important role in helping students learn fast. However, the students need to learn how to use different digital presentation mediums to perform better such as google slides, Prezi templates, etc. Topic 3 Make the Presentation Interesting Chart Timeline It is understandable that teachers need to persuade to take interest in the lessons and making the project interesting by using different graphs and photos will create an interest in the pupils. Hence, the presentation will take colorful photos and graphs into consideration so that students will enjoy the lessons and will also learn it easily.
