Thing #13

A definite learning experience for me. Not too difficult, though, but I chose to use Zoho because I was able to watch a very helpful guide before even signing up. I like to know what I'm getting into. :)

Tools like these are invaluable in education, as long as teachers are able to guide and direct the students, yet give them the freedom of creativity...a tough balance to obtain. Gone are the days of poster board! The possibilities for research reports, creative storytelling, visual aids for speeches, and group presentations are numerous, although I would love ideas and guidance as a teacher offering this tool to her students.

A side note...my husband (also a teacher) walked in while I was working on this slideshow and was excited to learn that he could upload already-created power point presentations onto a website!

I was able to use this for personal reasons in this example as I chose to give some information about my business. Families and friends could use tools like Zoho to create scrapbook-like projects, sharing pictures and ideas.
