Prezi - Zooming Presentations

I have to say that I have worked on and revisited this assignment numerous times! I still cannot figure it out! I have read the discussion posts, talked to classmates, and talked to co-workers...not sure what I am doing! I did get my previously made PPT Presentation to download, but I cannot figure out where to go from there. So...not sure when and if you will see this assignment!

This is all I have so far...suggestions would be great! PREZI

The Prezi-Zooming Presentations assignment closely relates to the ISTE.NETS teachers standards...
#2. Design and Develop Digital-Age Learning Experiences and Assessments
a. design or adapt relevant learning experiences that incorporate digital tools and resources to promote student learning and creativity.

PowerPoint Presentation

WOW.  I worked on this presentation ALL day, on and off!  It was fun, but time consuming to think of what I wanted to say, and how to describe my information in a creative way.  I created a 27 slide PowerPoint Presentation on the DCT~Diversified Cooperative Training program that I teach in the Business Education department at PBHSC.  DCT is a great program for teaching students on-the-job skills, as well as, how to create and complete letters of application, resumes, letters of resignation, job applications, and many other beneficial documents.  DCT also teaches students job characteristics, budgets, and how to obtain employment.

Hope you all enjoy my presentation!  You can now view it at slideshare...or you can view it below!

Dct~ it’s your future!

Action Research Report: Preparing Print Documents

My APA Paper is finally finished! Wow, those AR assignments kicked my butt! The action research report was something that I had just completed in a class last semester, so I had the format saved and ready to go!  Using the correct format is important when writing an AR paper.  It is important that you have a running header on each page, page numbers, a title page, abstract page, findings page, and references.  As for the page numbers on each page, I fought with that in my last class and never could figure out how to get pages 3, 4, and so on, to be those numbers!  Everything after page 1 on my report is page 2!

The action research report, Preparing Print Documents, consisted of  mainly summarizing the findings from the AR Spreadsheet assignment, as well as, responses to the AR questions on the Spreadsheet 3 assignment.  It allowed me to research further what the differences were in gender and classification percentages, and the average pretest and post test scores due to those percentages, if at all.  The report allowed me to use the copy and paste functions within MS Word and Excel to view charts and graphs within the AR Report.  Following the format of an APA Paper, the visual aids or charts/graphs required a specific "Figure 1, 2, 3, etc." and detailed caption below the chart or graph. 

The AR Report followed closely with the ISTE.NETS Standard 5: 
~Engage in Professional Growth and Leadership: 
5c.  Educators evaluate and reflect on current research and professional practice:  This is important in the field of education because teachers need to be up-to-date on current issues and technology, therefore supporting student learning.
