Vermont Fest 2021

Google Slides is a powerful tool for creating engaging presentations to support in-person instruction -- and so much more! This talk will give an overview of basic-to-intermediate functions within Google Slides including using transitions and adding and editing images. You’ll leave with actionable ideas for how Slides can be used to boost creativity in both the brick-and-mortar classroom and the Google Classroom (or whichever LMS you're using!). Attention will be placed on using Slides as a publishing tool for student work as well as in conjunction with tools like screencasting and Zoom breakout rooms to support and enhance hybrid and online instruction. Although we won't have time for a full-blown workshop, you’re welcome to bring a laptop and a Google login to play around with some of the functionalities we'll be discussing!
