Overview
In this activity you will have the opportunity to develop your technology
skills for professional use. Imagine that you have been asked to make a
presentation to a group of teachers at a professional in-service session. You
will use many of the skills that we have learned so far to create an electronic
research presentation. Use the Internet, electronic databases, and journals to
research a topic in educational technology. You will use PowerPoint to prepare your presentation and use
Microsoft Word to print a bibliography of the references that you use.
Research
After choosing an educational technology topic for your
presentation. You will need to find 5 articles: 2 research articles from professional journals; 3 from the
World Wide Web. Create a bibliography of your sources following the APA style
for references. For help with citing electronic sources, click

Each of you will upload five slides and the bibliography to your web
site.

Presentation
Use PowerPoint to prepare a 25 minute presentation of
the information that you found. The presentation should be arranged in a
logical order that is easy to follow and understand. The major points of your
presentation should be supported by the research that you did. The presentation
should use an effective screen design with transitions, builds, and clip art used
to enhance the topic. You will use Notes Page View to enter what you will say
in your presentation. Make sure that almost everything you want to say is
printed in your notes, since the presentation will be the major source for
evaluation. Your will turn in one
drive copy and one printed copy of your
presentation with all group members names printed at the top.
