| Abstract: | This article present information regarding presentation softwares. The most common media that people see in technology labs are printed materials such as textbooks, workbooks, and references, video on tape or CD-ROM or DVD, and software applications and simulations. However, many technology teachers create their own visual materials using presentation software such as Microsoft's PowerPoint. Two much-quoted studies by the 3M/Wharton School and the University of Minnesota/3M conclude that visual aids improve communication, effectiveness, improve the audience's perceptions of the presenter, and improve speakers' confidence. A primary consideration is the visual nature of the software and its capability to present highly visual information and concepts such as charts, graphs, images and photographs, and diagrams. While some technology teachers may have a digital camcorder as part of their lab inventory, there are many more who have inexpensive digital cameras with the capability to record 30 to 60 seconds of video and sound and easily transfer it to a personal computer for inclusion in a presentation. |
