M1-Voicethread Presentation #1- Course Overview

Below is a link to our PowerPoint presentation that goes along with your textbook. Since PowerPoint needs to be presented in order to make any sense, I use an online program called Voicethread so that we can discuss topics as if we were in the classroom. So with your participation this should be almost equivalent to a face-to-face lecture in the classroom on campus.

  2. Next upload a picture of yourself (the one you used in your Canvas profile is fine).
  3. Voicethread is very easy to use! You can comment with your microphone, webcam, audio recorder, or your cell phone but let's try not to use the text option so that we can hear each other's comments. You will see what to do, because I will go first!
