Ways To Become A Better Presenter with PPT & Storytelling

See on Scoop.itEducational Gaming and Simulation

Top Presentation of the Day | There’s an old saying, ‘Power corrupts but PowerPoint corrupts absolutely.’ Well, don’t blame the tools, blame the workman. A good presentation can make the difference between winning a deal and wasting an afternoon in a meeting room. It’s worth doing it well. These tips and resources should help turn you into a presentation hero.

Want a quick tutorial on how to create effective PowerPoint presentations?

Well — here it is! This won’t take you long to go through, and these are all good reminders. I’m bookmarking this page so I can share it with my MBA students, and also just to keep handy when I need my own refresher course!

And enjoy the visuals in this presentation. That’s a good lesson in and of itself 🙂

And my personal tip: think of your presentation as a story in-and-of-itself (setting, problem, challenges, resolution, take-aways) — in addition to sharing stories within your presentation.

Here’s the link to the original article:

This review was written by Karen Dietz for her curated content on business storytelling at www.scoop.it/t/just-story-it

What Does it mean to be Learned? Four Ways Play Inspires Learning | SmartBlogs

See on Scoop.itEclectic Technology

David Warlick shares a wonderful post about inspiring others, asking the questions “What meaning might there be in education?”  to which he responded “To learn and be learned.”

He then goes on to look at the word learned – is the goal to create “graduates who are learned (learn’•ed), with two syllables — an adjective”?

What would happen ” if we change learned to a one-syllable intransitive verb, where the learner is an unstated object, then the experience starts to reflect and is reshaped by the behavior of the learner. It becomes an exchange between the learner, what has been learned, and what is to be learned, and it provokes an active and deliberate investment by the learner. It becomes personal.”

Read on to learn how play inspires learning in four ways. How can we take this information and use it in our classrooms?
