Using+1+Image+-+Presentation+Tools

=Clear Targets = I can: = = =Combining rich media with a powerful image can be an effective way to communicate content and engage learners.= Many presentation tools allow teachers and/or students to create simple online presentations based on a single powerful image. Creating projects with these tools engages students by encouraging them to communicate visually by selecting photos and with language by providing a narrative or text to provide content and context for the photo. With the appropriate tools teachers and students can pack LOTS of content knowledge and understanding into a single image! Completed projects can be presented and easily shared with a wider audience.
 * explore tools currently used in classrooms that are age and content appropriate
 * collaborate with peers on how best to make use of these tools in the classroom
 * work with technology integration coaches and peers to choose tools that best meet needs for presentation projects for teachers and students
 * create necessary accounts and learn about processes for use that are appropriate for intended use and age of students
 * begin work on classroom presentations and plans for student presentation projects
 * link the presentation created to the CMCSS teacher webpage for ease of access by students and/or parents when appropriate

The first step in this process is to locate content specific, engaging photos. If using ONE image, that image should be powerful.
