The document discusses using PowerPoint differently for online learning compared to in-person presentations. Some key points:
- When used online, PowerPoint presentations need more content like text and notes on slides since learners will be reading on a computer screen rather than listening to a presenter.
- Interactivity is important online through tools like videos, quizzes, games and URLs to engage learners.
- File size is also a consideration for online materials, keeping presentations under 4MB if possible for emailing.

Construct maps are important tools in educational assessment and can serve multiple purposes related to development and validation, as well as score interpretation and use. This chapter outlines a process for developing a construct map from the qualitative ordering of teachers’ responses to open-ended assessment items. The construct of interest pertains to a teacher’s ability to attend to what students say and do, which is a key component of many recommendations for instructional practice within mathematics education. The instrument we are developing is designed to measure teachers’ attentiveness to student thinking in quantitative reasoning problem situations. A key aspect of our instrument development process is the development of a construct map that hierarchically orders qualitatively different levels of teacher attentiveness. In this chapter we describe our process for developing the construct map with the intent of providing an example to others who may be interested in engaging in the development of construct maps.
Scholars across many disciplines have grappled with questions of what it means for a person to
be and interact online. Who are we when we go online? How do others know we are there and
how do they perceive us? Within the context of online learning, scholarly questions tend to
reflect more specific concerns focused on how well people can learn in a setting limited to
mediated interactions lacking various communication cues. For example, how can a teacher and
students come to know each other if they cannot see each other? How can they effectively
understand and communicate with each other if they are separated by space and, in many
instances, time? These concerns are related to issues of social presence and identity, both of
which are complex, multi-faceted, closely interrelated constructs.
In search of a better understanding of social presence: An investigation into...Patrick Lowenthal
Research on social presence and online learning continues to grow. But to date,
researchers continue to define and conceptualize social presence very
differently. For instance, at a basic level, some conceptualize social presence as
one of three presences within a Community of Inquiry, while others do not.
Given this problem, we analyzed how researchers in highly cited social
presence research defined social presence in an effort to better understand how
they are defining social presence and how this might be changing over time. In
this article, we report the results of our inquiry and conclude with implications
for future research and practice.
Open Access Journals in Educational Technology: Results of a Survey of Exper...Patrick Lowenthal
As the academic publishing industry evolves, there has been an unprecedented growth of “open access journals” (OAJs). In educational technology alone, with an estimated 250 or more total journals, nearly one-third are designated as “open.” Though OAJs are lauded for their contribution to social justice issues (reduction of subscription requirement barriers), many people are suspicious of the content found in them and question the legitimacy of publishing in them. In this study, we sought to discover the opinions of educational technology scholars about OAJs in their own field. We were able to learn which OAJs were deemed to be most valuable, as well as the characteristics of OAJs thought to be particularly important. A companion site accompanies this article, http://edtechjournals.org
In Search of Quality: Using Quality Matters to Analyze the Quality of Massive...Patrick Lowenthal
The concept of the massive, open, online course (MOOC) is not new, but high-profile initiatives have moved them into the forefront of higher education news over the past few years. Members of institutions of higher education have mixed feelings about MOOCs, ranging from those who want to offer college credit for the successful completion of MOOCs to those who fear MOOCs are the end of the university as we know it. We set forth to investigate the quality of MOOCs by using the Quality Matters quality control framework. In this paper, we present the results of our inquiry, with a specific focus on the implications the results have on day-today practice of designing online courses.
Getting graphic About Infographics: Design Lessons Learned From Popular Infog...Patrick Lowenthal
People learn and remember more efficiently and effectively through the use of text and visuals than through text alone. Infographics are one way of presenting complex and dense informational content in a way that supports cognitive processing, learning, and future recognition and recollection. But the power of infographics is that they are a way of delivering the maximum amount of content in the least amount of space while still being precise and clear; because they are visual presentations as opposed to oral or text presentations, they can quickly tell a story, show relationships, and reveal structure. The following paper reports on an exploration of top 20 “liked” infographics on a popular infographic sharing website in an effort to better understand what makes an effective infographic in order to better prepare graduate students as consumers and designers of infographics. The paper concludes with recommendations and strategies on how educators might leverage the power of infographics in their classrooms.
Intentional Web Presence for Research and Technology ProfessionalsPatrick Lowenthal
Intentionally creating a well-crafted online presence, sometimes called a web presence, is important not only for recent graduates but for any professional in a community of practice that values technology use and innovation (e.g., information technology, computer science, digital and graphic design); also, professionals who work with external stakeholders (e.g., consultants working with clients, teachers working with parents, artists working with customers and funding sources) benefit from attention to their web presence. In this presentation, I will share why professionals need to attend to their web presence and share some strategies for crafting the components of a vibrant and dynamic professional web presence and digital footprint.

Infographics are one way of presenting complex and dense informational content in a way the supports cognitive processing, learning, and future recognition and recollection. Infographics, as the name implies, are a way of presenting information graphically. But the power of infographics is that they are a way of delivering the maximum amount of content in the least amount of space while still being precise and clear. In this session we will share the results of our inquiry into what makes an effective infographic. Derived from our inquiry, we will share recommendations on how educators might leverage the power of infographics in their classrooms, and assignments we now use with our students.
Online video is believed to help build social presence and community in online courses. But do students actually watch these videos? And what do they think of them? Do they always build social presence for every student? This mixed methods exploratory study investigates students’ perceptions of online video and the degree to which different uses of online video (e.g., video announcements, instructional screencasts, and video feedback) help establish and maintain social presence. The results of the study and the implications for faculty and instructional designers will be discussed in this session.
Intentional Web Presence for Educational Technology ProfessionalsPatrick Lowenthal
Educational technology professionals must be digitally literate. Part of this involves effectively managing one’s web presence. In this presentation, I will argue that educational technology professionals need to practice what they preach by attending to their web presence. I will share strategies for crafting the components of a vibrant and dynamic professional web presence such as creating a personal website, engaging in social networking, contributing and sharing resources/artifacts, and attending to search engine optimization (SEO).

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.

32. Ways to Add Content 1. Add More Text / Graphics to Body of the Slides 2. Add Notes
33. This slide is an example of what a PowerPoint slide online might look like: More content is better online When developing PowerPoint presentations for online learning, the rules change. The number one reason is because your audience is now sitting right at a computer screen. Therefore, while the two central principles (i.e., sound instructional design and sound message design) remain important because learners often skim instead of read content online, the actual development of the PowerPoint presentation changes and becomes more like designing a webpage. Implications The number one way this impacts faculty is by the fact that one presentation cannot and should not be used for classroom and online courses—that is, unless you are going to include audio or video to supplement the slides. Adding More Text
37. The Rules Change Online This slide is another example of what a PowerPoint slide online might look like: Interactivity When developing PowerPoint presentations online, it is important to recognize and take advantage of the fact that your learner is now able to interact with your presentation. Therefore, including URL’s, video, audio, games, quizzes, can all strengthen your presentation as a learning experience. Bandwidth The size of your files, images that you use, and any video components takes on new importance. As a general rule of thumb, it is hard to email anything over 4mb so you should strive to keep your PowerPoint presentations under 4mb . Home :: Week 1 :: Quiz 1 :: Week 2 :: Quiz 2 :: Week 3 :: Quiz 3 :: Back | Home | Next
So this is the basic agenda or at least how I planned things might go. But I am flexible and realize often there comes a time when you need to abandon the agenda and I am fine with that.
What do you think of when you hear “Death by PowerPoint”? [Open Chat pod or use the polling feature]
What I often think of is Peter Norvig who did this early spoof about what it might look like if Abraham Lincoln used PowerPoint for the Gettysburg Address. If you haven’t seen this before, I highly recommend checking out the link above or just Google Peter Norvig.
But the Death by PowerPoint movement, if you can call it that. Really started with this guy, Edward Tufte. “ Edward Tufte has written seven books, including Visual Explanations, Envisioning Information, The Visual Display of Quantitative Information, and Data Analysis for Politics and Policy. He writes, designs, and self-publishes his books on analytical design…He is Professor Emeritus at Yale University, where he taught courses in statistical evidence, information design, and interface design.” See www.edwardtufte.com for more information
But really it was this book, or monograph (it’s only about 30 pages) that really started the Death by PowerPoint movement. I highly recommend reading this. But if you can’t get a hold of a copy, a colleague and I wrote a review of it, which you might find helpful. I can give you a link to the review if you want: http://edrev.asu.edu/brief/jan08.html#7
But while Tufte really became the face of the Death by PowerPoint movement, he wasn’t the only one writing about and ranting about the problems of PowerPoint. The following are just a few titles of some articles written about the problems with PowerPoint.
6x6: use no more than 6 lines per slide and no more than 6 words per line. Guy Kawasaki: 10/20/30 rule – 10 slides, no more than 20 minutes, no font smaller than 30 Ignite : 20 slides timed for 15 seconds each (total time=5 minutes) http://ignite.oreilly.com/ Pecha Kucha : 20 slides timed for 20 seconds each (total time=6 minutes 40 seconds) www.pecha-kucha.org (e.g., http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9NZOt6BkhUg ) Gar Reynolds: Top 10 tips ( http://www.garrreynolds.com/Presentation/slides.html ) No bulleted lists No clip art No handouts of the slides Use stock images Maximum of 6 words per slide Find stock images (Flickr or other sites). The picture should be meaningful to the content on the slide and should take up the entire slide. Lack of bullets keeps it from becoming bogged down with words. Any handouts should be separate documents (in a word processing program usually). Keeping the words to a minimum keeps the information from being overwhelming, and keeps the presenter from reading to the audience.
So everything changes online. These rules about what to and what not to do are great but the environment and tools and the way we present change when we are teaching online and therefore so should the way we use PowerPoint and present information (i.e., lecture).
So, I have a question. (open chat or poll) 1. So does PowerPoint = lecture? 2. PowerPoint = content? Regarding the my first question, I would say definitely, NO! Or at least it shouldn’t. But yet when faculty want to put their lectures online, I would argue 90% of the time they mean they want to put their PowerPoint's online Regarding the second question, I would say it depends. As much as I hate PowerPoint presentations (especially bad one’s) and I hate poor PowerPoint handouts, at least as a student, I like to have to have the teacher’s notes. Depending on how in-depth (or how much content … typically text) each slide is, maybe they are useful (to a degree). Maybe they do to some degree equal content. But if a faculty member is following many of the tips I addressed earlier, then the slides most likely do not equal content. And of course, I don’t think content or information necessarily equals learning.
So I believe that faculty are faced with PowerPoint Online Imperative when they teach online or at least want to use PowerPoint (in the typical way of presenting information) in their online courses. So what is the online imperative you ask? It’s the belief that faculty need to do one of the following two things when using PowerPoint online.
1. Narrate your presentation. That is, record your presentation/lecture. This can simply be an audio recording or even an audio/video recording.
Or 2. Faculty must add more content. Now faculty typically think of content as more text but it can also be information rich graphics, audio, video… but the idea is that simply following a less text is better philosophy doesn’t work online (i.e., if you aren’t going to narrate your slides). Why? Because students are missing what connects the bullets. There was a line in a dancing movie I saw a while ago that said dancing is what happens between the steps. Well, a presentation is what happens between the bullets.
Have everyone login to this document and create the document together [pull it up so everyone can see it] --http://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AU6yjEoIPaTIZGhtaGM2ZmdfNDg4NW1maHFmODc&hl=en (version 2) --http://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=0AU6yjEoIPaTIZGhtaGM2ZmdfNDg5Yzk4amJoNms&hl=en
Now there are probably a number of ways to add more content to your slides but the two that I always think of are to either add more text / graphics… to each PowerPoint Slide, specifically in the body of the slide or to complete the notes section for each slide.
This is an example of a slide with more text. Notice that if violates a lot of the rules discussed earlier about ways to design PowerPoint presentations for F2F situations. But I think this can work just fine in an online environment. Further, by creating slides like this, you are essentially creating little learning objects that you can then use a tool like iSpring to export as a flash web site.
But perhaps the easiest way to go is to just complete the notes section and to print your slides with notes as a PDF and share these with students. I say this is the easiest because it enables you to keep one slide deck for F2F and online situations.
So I believe that faculty are faced with PowerPoint Online Imperative when they teach online or at least want to use PowerPoint (in the typical way of presenting information) in their online courses. So what is the online imperative you ask? It’s the belief that faculty need to do one of the following two things when using PowerPoint online.
