Using Powerpoint In The Classroom
Computer technology and computer software has its place in modern teaching aids. Teacher PowerPoint presentations engage students in a visual way with the PowerPoint slides and students hear what their teacher is saying at the same time. PowerPoint slides are slowly replacing the chalk board and the white board with better graphics and the PowerPoint slide can be saved for another day of teaching.
Teachers are capable of creating a PowerPoint slide with test questions, spelling drills, math formulas. Students who have missed a day from school can watch the PowerPoint presentation either in the classroom or at home with a parent. The PowerPoint presentation can be printed and handed out to the students to follow along while their teacher has the presentation up on the screen.
Modern teaching aids like PowerPoint can assist the teacher’s creativity to make lessons fun.
