PowerPoint Presentation
Context
I worked on a PowerPoint presentation with a group of 4 classmates
and myself. We chose the topic Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.
We used Microsoft Power Point to make our presentation. We used a
digital camera to take our pictures to put in our Power Point. We
also used clip art, sounds, and text boxes, to add to our presentation.
In our presentation, we used a Sony LCD data projector that is mounted
to the ceiling. This projector is wired to a computer. There
are also speakers mounted on the wall that allowed us to add sound to the
presentation. We used wireless technology to present our presentation.
In our classroom, we had a touch screen that allowed us to operate the
screen for the projector.
Impact
I am going to be licensed to teach grades K-6 in North Carolina.
It is important to use technology to present information to my students.
A Power Point presentation is a great way to keep the students involved
in the presentation. It gives them something to look at while I am
teaching.
Alignment
Artifact 12 aligns with the previously discussed competencies.
It aligns with 11.2 because I worked in
a group to present a Power Point presentation by using technology.
We used a computer, data projector, touch screen, and a digital camera
in our presentation. Competency 11.4
says to “Use technology to facilitate teaching strategies specific to the
discipline.” In our group we used the computer and Internet to look
up information on our topic, make our presentation, and present it to the
class. Finally, this artifact aligns with competency 12.6
because
we used wireless technology and a touch screen to present our presentation.
