How To Play With Power Point In Teaching and Learning Proccess On The Classroom

Instructions

1

The first thing you want to do when designing a PowerPoint game for students is to pick an eye-catching design that'll grab and hold on to their attention. PowerPoint comes with a few pre-set designs that you can take your pick from by clicking the "Design" tab along the top of the window after opening PowerPoint 2007 (see picture). You can also change the colors of the design by using the buttons under the "Design" tab.

2

Most games use some sort of table of point values or dollars that can be clicked to bring up questions. To insert a "Jeopardy!" - style table, you will need to click the "Insert" tab and click "Table." You can drag your mouse to highlight the number of rows and columns you want (see picture); 6 by 6 fits pretty well for classroom game purposes.

3

Once your table is inserted, you will need to enlarge it to take up the whole slide, or at least most of it. The design will be covered for this slide, but don't worry, it will show on the question slides. Just click and drag the edges of the table to enlarge it to the size you desire. Then, you can type into the darker cells along the top of the table different catergories for your game (in the case of this image, the steps of the writing process). Also type point values (or dollars, or whatever you want) into each column of cells. We'll add hyperlinks in a moment.

4

You're going to want to make the text bigger and center it in the cells to make it more aesthetically pleasing (the kids love stuff that looks good). Highlight all of the cells, and under the "Home" tab, you can change the text font, size, and center it (see picture). Play with fonts and sizes until you find something you like.

5

You will need to create your question slides before you can link to them from the table slide you just created. To add a new slide to the show, simply right click in the pane on the left below the thumbnail of the slide you're working on. Select New Slide and a new slide with your chosen design will appear. Type your first question onto the new slide; we'll link to it from the table in a moment.

6

To hyperlink to this slide, now, you will have to go back to your first slide (the one with the table), highlight the cell in the first column, first row (for this example, the first "10"), and right-click. Select "Add Hyperlink." In the window that pops up, select "Place in this Document" in the left-hand pane (see picture). Once there, you can select the slide you want to hyperlink to (in this case, Slide 2), and a preview of it will even appear on the right. Click "OK," and you've got a hyperlink!

7

The hyperlinked text will now be a different color than the other text, and underlined. If you right-click it, you can choose to "Go To Hyperlink" and you will be brought to the slide you have hyperlinked to. Now, while playing the game, you will probably want to be able to jump right back to the table slide from the question slide. For this, you will want to put a "home" hyperlink on every question page that links back to the slide. I suggest clicking the "Insert" tab, selecting "Shapes," and clicking the action button that looks like a house on the bottom (see picture). You can turn this picture into a hyperlink to the first slide by right-clicking the house and repeating Step 6, linking to Slide 1. You can copy and paste this house to every question slide, and the link will work as long as you created the link before copying.

8 . Make your question slides by repeating Step 5 as often as you need, and create hyperlinks to each question using Step 6, and you've got yourself a fun, clickable, classroom review game that the kids will love! Break students into teams and keep score for a motivating challenge they'll ask for again...and you'll be able to allow that with ease by simply changing the column titles and questions on the slides!

The Era of ICT

 

 

Information and Communications Technology or ICT, is often used as an extended synonym for information technology (IT), but is a more specific term that stresses the role of-unified communications and the integration of telecommunications (telephone lines and wireless signals), computers as well as necessary enterprise software, middleware, storage, and audio-visual systems, which enable users to access, store, transmit, and manipulate information.

The phrase ICT had been used by academic researchers since the 1980's, but it became popular after it was used in a report to the UK government by Dennis Stevenson in 1997 and in the revised National Curriculum for England, Wales and Northern Ireland in 2000.

The term ICT is now also used to refer to the convergence of audio-visual and telephone networks with computer networks through a single cabling or link system. There are large economic incentives (huge cost savings due to elimination of the telephone network) to merge the audio-visual, building management and telephone network with the computer network system using a single unified system of cabling, signal distribution and management.

The term Info-communications is sometimes used interchangeably with ICT. In fact Info-communications is the expansion of telecommunications with information processing and content handling functions on a common digital technology base. For a comparison of these and other terms, see.

The ICT Development Index compares the level of ICT use and access across the world.

The world's technological capacity to store information grew from 2.6 (optimally compressed) exabytes in 1986 to 15.8 in 1993, over 54.5 in 2000, and to 295 (optimally compressed) exabytes in 2007. This is the informational equivalent to 404 billion CD-ROM in 2007. Piling them up would create a stack from the earth to the moon and a quarter of this distance beyond (with 1.2 mm thickness per CD). The world’s technological, capacity to receive information through one-way broadcast networks was 432 exabytes of (optimally compressed) information in 1986, 715 (optimally compressed) exabytes in 1993, 1.2 (optimally compressed) zettabytes in 2000, and 1.9 zettabytes in 2007. The world's effective capacity to exchange information through two-way telecommunication networks was 281 petabytes of (optimally compressed) information in 1986, 471 petabytes in 1993, 2.2 (optimally compressed) exabytes in 2000, and 65 (optimally compressed) exabytes in 2007. The world's technological capacity to compute information with humanly guided general-purpose computers grew from 3.0 × 10^8 MIPS in 1986, to 6.4 x 10^12 MIPS in 2007.

3D Holographic Displays


ZCam is a video camera that can record information up into objects that can be used to create a visual model with a 3-dimensional or 3D. After that the video will be in production by 3DV Systems that use advanced technology. This technology uses a base principle of "Time of Flight". By using this technique, the data size of the 3D obtained by using infrared waves into scen video as well as in the detection of light reflected to the surface of the object in the video scene. With the variable time which is taken by infrared waves to reach the target object and when he returned, the distance can be calculated and then used to create 3D information from all objects in the scene. Also Read Video Player application on Android.

Jet Pack



The most advanced technology in the world today is the next Jet Pack. Jet Pack also includes tools that we find in the world banya or fictional game in which this tool allows humans to fly by using a jet that took off the gas and then be flown to its users.
