We tried another cloud-based presentation app called Canva. Most of us know Canva as an easy place to create graphics (I've used it for birthday invitations for almost a decade!) but they've been expanding. Now we can use the tools to create a very cool slideshow with little effort.
The topic of the slideshow was about the student's perspective on three questions:
For each question, we talked with our tables and then shared out to help the students formulate their thoughts on the topics. Then, either independently or with a partner, they created a Canva slideshow. The requirements were the basic things (text, pictures, animations, etc.) and I saw some great insight and fantastic presentations.
The topic of the slideshow was about the student's perspective on three questions:
- What type of content is not suitable for someone your age?
- If all of a person's news (information) is filtered through one perspective, what could be the impact on their thinking and world-view?
- How could common elements of a website/app make it unsafe?
