\nBlackboard and Slideshare.Com<\/strong>
\nSlideshare.com is a social media site where you can upload PowerPoint slideshows and convert them into Flash movies, which your students can then view without having to have PowerPoint installed on their computers.\u00a0 In addition, Slideshare.com allows you to insert YouTube videos directly into your PowerPoint slideshows, thus enabling you to transform them into multifaceted learning objects. Better yet, for instructors who use Blackboard in their teaching, there is a mashup tool in Blackboard 9.1 that they can use to embed their Slideshare Flash movies into their Blackboard courses.\u00a0 In this 1 \u00bd hour workshop, you will learn how to upload PowerPoint files to Slideshare.com; integrate YouTube content into those files; and then embed the resulting Flash movies into your Blackboard course(s) using the Blackboard mashup tool.\u00a0 As well, you will receive tips on how to take optimal advantage of this exciting Web 2.0 technology, and learn what some of the best practices are for integrating it into your face-to-face, hybrid, or online instruction.<\/span><\/p>\n
