Technology Tool # 3 : Slide Share

Website URL: http://www.slideshare.net/?ss

Slide Share is a website that is very visually engaging upon first glance. The somewhat mirrors the layout YouTube uses. It also seems to have the same goal of YouTube which is to garner the most views or likes. There is a wealth of knowledge on Slide Share that is provided by anyone who wants to post it.

The overall use of the site is similar to other websites in that there is a free beginner account. You can do upgrades which will cost you a monthly amount. There is a Basic, Silver, Gold and Platinum. The monthly is slightly high which starts at $14 a month to $41 as the plans increase in benefits.

I attempted to load a current PowerPoint that I have on my desktop that I used for a previous class to see how it would translate over to a Slide Share. It was extremely easy. My PowerPoint easily converted to a Slide Share with no need for editing or anything else.  Please click on the links below to find a really interesting Slide Share in regards to Emerging Technologies in Learning. It's very interesting how this Slide Share poses the use of technology since 1703.
