Thing 9 of 11.5 Things

I think it would very important for students to use Slideshare. The bonus of it being an online app instead of a desktop program can help them keep a portfilio of their work as they grow up. It can also aid in the sharing of information as well as working on things outside of the classroom. With the ability to email the presentation, students who don't live near each other can still be assigned a group project either emailing the project back and forth or creating an account to use for that particular assignment.

authorSTREAM seems great. I am a bit confused and need to reread some things but it seemed like the authorSTREAM was more advanced than Slideshare, but I think I remember seeing someone upload their presentation to Slideshare so perhaps the two are separate. I will need to learn more...(always!)

As far as 280slides.com - who needs PPT anymore?

so many choices it is hard to keep them straight. I did see a project that had been added to Slideshare and successfully put into a blog.

Of course, the new firewall took these down along with lots of other things inside the district, but hopefully, everything is back and open!
