Present Me is a very unique web tool which not only allows you to create presentations to share, it also allows you to add voiceovers to the presentation. There are many purposes for this tool in 21 century learning today. Teachers can create presentations (which include PowerPoint, GoogleDoc, or PDF's like Keynote and Prezi) and share these with students, or student's can create unique presentations with this tool.
Present Me can reduce or remove for certain learners in several ways. Some examples include:
- If students are struggling with being proficient in English (or language of instruction) or are visual learners, presentations including pictures can be utlised to clarify and assist these learners.
- If students are slower at comprehending aural information, then providing presentations online with a voiceover can be played multiple times to assist.
- The voiceover feature allows students in lower grades (K-2) to communicate their verbally while typing is a challenge. This allows the students to put together a presentation without text.
The terms of use states that "if you are under the age of 18 years of age you or your school must obtain a valid, signed parental or guardian consent before using this Site." This causes a strain on accessibility for students to create on this tool, but can still be a very valid tool for teachers!
