4.13: Presentation Zen: Google Slides Add-Ons

The ed Newsstand

This week's newsletter is all about Google Slides add-on you can use to build the best presentation quickly and efficiently. Some of the resources I’ve talked about already as an external website, however, now I show you how you can access those same resources from within Google Slides. I have resources to help you find the perfect font for your presentation or how to make your text stand out. I have resources to quickly find icons for your presentation. There are also resources to help you find the right graphic or build a great template for your slides. Each resource is meant to help you build one aspect of your presentation better. If you do listen until the end you will get four bonus add-ons you can use when you or your students build presentations.

In TikTok Tech, Heather Fischer from @atrailblazingteacher introduces you to the website wodb.ca to help create classroom discussions about which item doesn’t belong in the group. The website provides various puzzles, typically STEM-based, for students to discuss without providing a clear correct answer for the puzzle. The idea is to formulate solid arguments as to why one answer might be more correct than another answer. In Tech Refresh, @cnnunderscored provides you with four unique keyboard shortcuts for your Mac.
