Thing Eighteen

What I liked about this presentation was that it applied to something we had recently discussed in one of our "Things." We had been asked to explore Twitter and sign up for this. While Twitter is still something of a mystery of sorts (since I really won't have a lot of time to play around with it a lot until school is over), this is just one more piece to add to the collection, helping to explain it a bit.

Slideshare could be used, I think, in much the same way that I use United Streaming, if I understand what I am reading correctly. My understanding is that as long as you have signed up for Slideshare, you are able to borrow any of the presentations, as well as add your own to the collections. This might help add to the ideas you already have, adding to your arsenal. Out of the classroom, I think you could post home movies of your grandkids or your pets. Everyone, of course, would want to see those!


What did you like about the presentation you embedded? How might Slideshare be useful in the classroom? out of the classroom?
