About Me

My photo
In a former life I was an Event Organiser but am currently studying to be a Primary School Teacher whilst juggling two small children and my husband. We live on a cattle property and it is the best place in the world to see my kids growing up and actively learning about the world around them. Hopefully I will be able to help them do this more successfully when I finish studying.

My PowerPoint

This is a PowerPoint presentation that I've created aimed at a Grade 3 audience. In my former life, I was used to creating PowerPoint presentations quite frequently in the corporate world but this activity has been quite a challenge for me.

It took me a reasonable amount of time to make my PowerPoint, I even went through the tutorial (and then realised I had PP V2007) so turned out to be somewhat of a waste of time. However, I am currently unable to work out how to put my PowerPoint into my blog. It's getting to the 5 hour stage now and I've tried Google, looking at the forum and nothing seems to be working. I think I've subscribed to at least 3 new websites that I've never heard of before, invented passwords that I no longer know which one is for what and I'm still going. For now, I am going to give up and try and do something more productive. And that, I think, is what using ICTs effectively is all about. Knowing when you've hit the wall and deciding to come back another day. I think I've uploaded my presentation here: http://www.scribd.com/doc/30021254 or is it here?: http://www.slideshare.net/secret/C4cYqV3wTGGu8a
