Arghhh! Cont'd

Okay so I had the students research information on Alternate Energies for a Science Project.  For the most part this was done well.   I then asked them to present the project one of two ways.  They could use a presentation program like Power Point or Keynote or the good old paper and pencil on a presentation board.  I had James Klassen come in and teach my classes a Keynote Lesson.  They appeared to love the program.  There assignments did not mirror this excitement.  I was surprised at the poor job many of them did with this presentation.  In fact the ones that were done on poster board were much better.  I think I need to try again and show them some samples of some really great ones and then some that are not so great.  I want to try again because I know I should have seen different results.  Until Next Time.....
