Great Presentations

Take a look at the presentation I have embedded in this post. I first discovered this incredible slide show, “Do You Know,” on Karl Fisch’s blog. Recently, Mr. Fisch permitted a young man named Jeff Brenman to remix the presentation. Mr. Berman’s new version won Slideshare’s World’s Best Presentation Contest.

Jeff’s version is awesome. Does this give you ideas for your next presentation?

I have also embedded a modified version of Mr. Fisch’s original presentation for the sake of comparison. This modified version was created by Scott McLeod. Mr. McLeod has removed slides that were specific to Mr. Fisch’s school district.
While the presentation was intended for educators, I think it is important for students to view.

Wow. “Exponential Times,” think about it…its a term everybody should know. “exponential” being increasing more and more…and times being the era that we are in as of today…crazy, isn’t it?

    All I can say to this is WOW. Its crazy how many people rely on technology for everything. In the video it said that what we learn now isn’t going to be useful in three years. What I think that means is that what we learn now in 9th grade won’t be useful to us in 12th grade. :0
