Embed presentations

January 3, 2008 · No Comments



Oh oh! We’re embedding the web again! Teachers can use SlideShare to upload their PowerPoint, Keynote or PDF slideshows. You can do so with ease using the kml insert shown in the tutorial that will soon appear here……. SlideShare is the world’s largest community for sharing slideshows on the web and allows for greater collaboration around these works-of-art <sic> after they have been presented. Sound recordings in mp3 can be attached to the presentations for greater immersion. When I get a moment I would like to do that for this one here too.

This was presented at ECAWA 2007. The blurb:

Empowering Inquiry Based Learning with Web2.0 Mash-Ups
‘Web 2.0′ and the new models of communication and research that it enables means teachers and students can embed and automate the inquiry based learning process. Instant messaging, blogging, podcasting, Skype, wikis, RSS are but some tools available in the ‘participatory social web’ that allow students to become knowledge creators and teachers to become facilitators. And the impact that this has on education could be enormous.
