 * ** This week is really all about PowerPoint. The main idea is to show students that PowerPoint presentations don't have to be linear - they can be interactive, where the learner selects the information to be viewed. It's good to show students PowerPoint games, virtual museums, test review activities, and whatever other examples of creative use of PowerPoint you may have. **

Great video to show your students and discuss what NOT to do with PowerPoint design: __ [] __

** Assignments ** > **Interactive PowerPoint.** Based on our discussion of educational uses of PowerPoint, you will design an interactive (nonlinear) PowerPoint presentation (e.g., a game). Your presentation should include a) a menu screen, b) links between slides with navigation buttons or links, and c) at least one slde that uses animation of objects for an instructional purpose. Students are encouraged to incorporate sound effects (where appropriate!) and audio recordings of their own voice. The following __ rubric __ will be used to grade your Interactive PowerPoint. > > Your project will be graded on the following criteria:


 * Appropriate use of images, shapes, objects, and text in a way that would effectively supplement instruction
 * Use of internal hyperlinks between slides (both from Menu to subtopic, and from subtopic back to the Menu)
 * Use of animations on at least one slide to enhance instructional effectiveness
 * Selection of an appropriate design template
 * Information is accurate and sources are cited (where did you obtain images and information?)
 * No grammar or spelling errors
 * Saved correctly as a PowerPoint Show and uploaded to __ Google Docs __ (do not convert, simply upload) and shared to your instructor on time
