Narrated Powerpoints
I really liked using powerpoint, for teaching science especially, because it allows you to present and discuss diagrams from the text that student may have struggled with. Narrating it felt funny though, I feel like I read off the slides way more than I do when speaking to an audience. Normally I glance at the slides to remind myself of my points, but with nothing to do but stare at the slides it was hard not to read them!

I had the same problems trying to read the slides. I ended up having my friend sit across from me and just look at him as I talked. It helped a lot.
ReplyDeleteScripting helped me avoid reading off the slides. Also, I purposely use very little text on the slides and use images instead.
