This interactive course is designed to empower educators with the knowledge and skills necessary to create compelling, effective, and engaging online presentations. You’ll learn how to leverage instructional and visual design to enhance presentations, and how you can structure your presentation to effectively communicate ideas and engage your audience. You’ll take a look at why color is important, how photos help learning stick, and why clip art doesn’t. You’ll be exposed to a variety of platforms for creating interactive presentations, that include embedded videos and screencasts. You’ll discover new alternative uses for presentation slide decks, such as an ebook or teacher planning canvas. Then, you’ll create wonderfully engaging online presentations for use in your professional role. This is an intermediate level course.
