Power Points

So basically my new favorite thing in the whole world is power point. I have used it before for school but I didn't really put much effort into it since it was just a high school assignment. Also I didn't have my own computer so I really wasn't motivated to do anything too extravagant. So when I was practicing using it there were so many new things that I discovered. In fact, I made a power point about my roommate and there was so many fun things that I was able to do with it. I think that it's a good way to introduce new ideas to students and to other teachers. This way the information can be exciting and fun.

But i think that there is a fine line when using power points. In my opinion it's not good to make the power point jam packed with too much information. Power points can reach people if they are done well. If there is fun information and is presented in an interesting way then the students will be interested and engaged. Also with power points so many things can be added to them with being able to add slides, and rearrange things. One of my favorite tools of power points is the sounds that can be added to any slide. When I was putting together my friends power point I used this witch cackle and it was the funnest thing ever! Another good tool of power points is the bulleting options. On the same slide where i added the sound I made the bullets witch hats instead of just dots. This part was so cool to me because I had no idea that i could do this before. It's a fun and easy way to tie the slides together and I have really enjoyed using it.

All in all i think that power points are an effective way to teach students or to reach parents and colleagues.
