About me - hyperlink

Google Slides

Creation tool =  plan design create!

Give consideration to where you are presenting, ie text size, image, etc.

An image says a thousand words - be mindful of who you are presenting to.

• What do you want the audience to know about. 
• Know you intentions first, before you start. Where do you want to go. Then jump on slide deck.
• Your intention is not to write screeds on google slides.
• Defaults in slides: ditch them as they are restrictive.  Use your own slides, create.
• Use consistent formatting!!!!  ie, fonts, colours, etc. (no more than two fonts, same with colour) you want focus on content not background.
• your slides should support you talk, not be read from the whole time. They are there to support you.
• Use the tools built in - animations, bit emoji etc, They have links.
• lots of different functions within Google Slides enables teachers and learners to play.
• (refer back to the slideshow for ideas on what can be done) (we are a little limited by the age of our ipads, but slides will work)
• Lots of apps within google slides.

Little steps at a time - take from DFI and increase your usage of different ideas.

Creating with slides:

A bit of a mission, especially putting it into the blog.  Thanks Sharon for spoon feeding me!

Lots of information today.  Whew! Found the online thing quite difficult, but hey, we got there in the end!  Thank you ladies, and thank you colleagues for being so patient!

I'm looking forward to next week with the spreadsheets.
