The tutorial was quite interesting for using powerpoint. This was perhaps not as much of an eye opener as many of the other experiences as I have had a fair about of experience with powerpoint.
Within this powerpoint I have used several different tools to asisst students of different learning capabilities. The first item I was able to impliment was a page that had a visual step by step outlay of how to do a maths problem. As each step appears a verbal prompt plays to talk through the step. This helps both the visial and listening learners to interpret the information. I also added at the end of the explanation and practice sequence time for students to have reflective chat with the student next to them. This was to assist any student that learns through conversation and teaching others.
One of the challenges I met was the time it takes to set out the information. I had similar issues on prac when preparing for the interactive whiteboard. The process was easy but time consuming (mostly due to only having access to the student version of the software which is limited). Again, powerpoint can be time consuming.
I have however achieved a PPT that I think will be useful to teach students and will hopefully engage them in the work I am trying to teach.
