Its easy to forget that students know how to make a presentation. Students in our classrooms are so wonderful at using technology that its easy to forget they still need to be reminded on the basics. And its easy to do. Google Slides is a wonderful tool, but if students don't know how to use it well, it can be a large distraction to presentation day in our classrooms. My simple solution? Give kids the chance to try it out. Use a simple do now to have students develop one "good" slide, and one "not so good" slide. Then display a few examples to the class. Open up a conversation with students about what looks professional on the projector. Plus the kids get the goofy out before the real work starts!
