We are getting deeper into the principles of Multimedia and specifically the Modality and Redundancy Principles. I was tasked with trying to create a presentation that flowed like a story, but was picture rich and text light. Getting folks away form the standard bullets of powerpoint into a new mode is a good thing that i have always been a proponent of, in fact I have been using Haiku Deck for a while (although I do very little presentations in class).

I took an old unfinished presentation that I had started a while back and redesigned it with the new ideas in mind. These principles are coming out of the E-Learning and Science of Instruction book that we are reading. The presentation is based on ways to use wireless in the classroom. I changed some slides and added all new presenter notes (I actually never had presenter notes in the deck).

I also tried to give the presentation a flow that was put forth by Nancy Duarte in her TEDx talk, although this is easier said then done. I did learn from this assignment and am trying to push myself forward in new areas. However, that being said I just came off an incredibly busy week with running the 6th annual Mountain Moodle Moot here in Helena Montana and really just want to sleep.
