Comments from a Former Student
As I reflect upon Bonnie Mohnsen's course, Using technology in Physical Education - PowerPoint Skills, I realize the key to knowledge is to keep exploring. At times, I was frustrated with my lack of understanding of this technology, but through perserverance and Bonnie's instruction, I was able to learn new programs/applications. Then, with this knowledge, I was able to accomplish the assigned tasks.
I found the unrestricted time requirements for completion of each Module refreshing. I was able to create, edit and apply new applications without the stress of a strict deadline. Each succeeding Module built upon the ones preceding it, so I was able to apply lessons I learned and grow to understand its multiple applications. The Module assignments also challenged me to use unfamiliar programs (i.e.: MovieMaker, Media Player) to learn about inserting and editing various components into the presentations. This knowledge will be enormously helpful in the future. I especially appreciated Bonnie's patience and constructive critiques throughout the course.
This course was exhilarating, stimulating and challenging. I enjoyed creating the various PowerPoint presentations and plan to create more for use both in my classes and at workshops for Physical Educators.
This course is designed to introduce physical educators to the use of powerpoint for teacher productivity and instruction. Participants will complete the course with intermediate skills in the use powerpoint. They also will learn practical applications for PowerPoint.
Participants will be able to:
Follow all design principles when creating presentations.
Design a presentation on a cognitive concept.
Design a presentation on a motor skill.
Design a presentation on his/her physical education program.
Design a presentation for back-to-school night.
Create and design a powerpoint document for a professional use.
