Cory, PowerPoint is a great tool and preparing a power point is as important as presenting it. Students often do not like when a power point is used verbatim. They rather see it as notes or a resource. Good luck using classroom technology going forward. Antoine Lewis

June , PowerPoint is a great tool and with students being more of visual and hands on learners than ever in my opinion. It is important to summaries and/or elaborate as reading verbatim often lowers attention spans in the classroom. Good luck using classroom technology going forward. Antoine Lewis

Michael, It is awesome that you do not only provide the students with information but you allow them to apply what they information you provided. Simulations are becoming more common as physical hardware may often times not be available or you may not have enough for all students. Good luck with your courses going forward. Antoine Lewis

LE, When it comes to teaching onsite and online it can be a good way to introduce technololgy from online to the onsite class. Word, excel, and ppt are tools most student have been introduced to by the time they enter college. Also, I find visual and audio learning is important to today’s student. Overall you are using technology in the classroom to deliver the content better and they get learning that meets various learning styles. Good luck going forward! Antoine Lewis

alexandra, PowerPoint has been known to be an effective tool that allows student to get another point of view such as visual aid. We just have to know when our audience is ready for a ppt. break and refer to audio/video, traditional lecture etc. due to the various learning styles students have today. I wish you continues success with Microbiology and using technology in the classroom Antoine Lewis

Charles, PowerPoint is one of the most commonly used technologies in classrooms, and its projection on screens has become a fundamental part of many students learning information. Media is transforming the classroom whether it is visual, audio, etc. This upcoming generation embraces interactive media in the classroom. Good luck with your classes and still today taking hands on approach is always productive when teaching. Antoine Lewis

wayne, Use technology in the classroom had become the future and students as student learn from technology more than a textbook at times. What is important is the hands on learning-applying what was taught. Keep it up and good luck-learning concepts can be difficult or easy to learn but technology can help redress some of the problems that students face. Antoine Lewis
