SlideShare

Took a look through the list and Thing 19, Just for Fun. Who isn't looking for fun!! After googling Edutopia I looked through the list and found slideshare. As the article says, it's not your Father's slideshow. This tool supposedly beats "powerpoint." Here's the challenge: tomorrow, Tuesday May 6 I begin my last research project of the year with my classes. I will offer 50 extra credit points for students who use Slideshare instead of powerpoint. The I'll see. It's one thing for me to play with it but how productive and useful will it be for my students? Hmmmm, we will see. Too bad we don't have time. But never fear!! I will post on my blog the results, June 4th is presentation day. Stay tuned.
