So, where is the Power of PowerPoint?

So, where is the Power of PowerPoint?

I do not know, but I sometimes think about it, and look what this guy says. Impossible, I hope we do not get a big community of stupidities because as he says, PowerPoint is being used everywhere, not matter what people need to present, PowerPoint is the best way to do that.  There a lot of points to think about by this reading. This is just to point over what the reading is pointing, do not abuse PowerPoint, do not let PowerPoint abuse of you, just try to get some freedom of some stuff like this, just combine traditional ways and technology that is what I do, and at the end I am happy, because I feel fortunate for living in a world using technology but having experiences with traditional ways to do my work. Do not make everything too simple that look obvious, everything is not obvious, there are a lot of complex things. , Jose

Teachers Use Cell Phones in the Classroom

Teachers Use Cell Phones in the Classroom

In my school students cannot use cell phones for all the distracting stuff that it is to be used by students that have anything to do in class, but is permitted to be used if the teacher authorizes the student use, and it is what I do with student’s cellphones. They ask for permission to look for specific things as vocabulary meaning, definitions, spelling, pronunciation, copying biographies and so on. That is how I used cellphone in class. I know sometimes they, the students use it for texting, or listening to music, but are those students that go to school just to do different stuff, not to study, s they get a referral for such conduct and get one day ISS or one hour detention.  Cell phones are permitted in cafeteria and some hallways, not everywhere. That was my school conclusion about it.
