Using presentation software in the classroom can be a big advantage, as well as a slight disadvantage. Powerpoint is a tool that acts as a visual aid for a teacher’s presentation, and it could definitely help convey most of the information that is present. If you can create a presentation that’ll draw the students in, then presenting with Powerpoint can definitely be an advantage. If the Powerpoint is too drawn out or too vague, it can be distracting to students, and you can lose your audience’s attention. Making a Powerpoint that is “to the point” and effective can be a huge asset in the classroom.
Each dimension requires a different procedure. To remember, I might create a flow chat and include some interesting images. Understanding would require me to present sound and perhaps a video. Applying would involve similar dynamics. The students could work together in groups while analyzing, and they would observe others’ information to evaluate. Then, the students could create a presentation about the lecture.
An issue related to educational technology that caught my interest is the reliability of internet sources. There is just so much false information out there, and how can we know what is real? Wikipedia.com is an example of a popular website that might not always be accurate, yet people often tend to use this as a “reliable” source.
