As an avid scrapbooker, I was excited to try out the slideshow feature on the LPS website. I don't think I will ever use it. I would much rather create a power point and upload the power point in the resource section. My first problems came with the size of the picture and the slowness of the upload. My next problem is with the captioning of the pictures (very tiny on the bottom left of the screen). There are so many more option with PowerPoint, I would rather create just one presentation for my students and parents. I did learn how to change my file size in paint.
I used my scrapbooking software to edit the photos I had taken earlier this year of a lab I had completed with students. My hope was to create a PowerPoint with the pictures as an introduction to the lab procedure and also as a way for students who were absent to see the lab being completed.
I have included a picture of the brass penny my students made in lab!
I'm going to try the slide show option, just because I'm curious how it'll work. If I'm not happy with the look of it, I'll definitely use the PowerPoint option.
ReplyDeleteI like your picture. What scrapbooking software do you use? I agree that power point is an easy option.
ReplyDeleteTry smilebox.com. You can create fabulous slideshows without having to change/edit the size of your photos. The basic service is free. It is simple to use. I downloaded it and followed the directions on my own.
ReplyDeleteI have a few power point presentations from my students on my site now. I will use them as examples in the future, but for now, it is a showcase for excellent work! I ran into the resizing issue too, not happy as I need things to move quickly since there is so much to do at work and home!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea on the power point for an intro to a lab! It touches on visual and auditory learners!
