Notes to Facilitator (Continued)

The tutorials are important but it is essential that the student teachers have an opportunity to transfer the skills learnt here. Task 5, designing and creating a curriculum resource, is designed to do this, so ensure enough time is spent on this last activity. In this task, the student teachers are also introduced to a new service that is potentially useful in the identification of images for teaching: Google image search. Make sure you are familiar with this tool so that you can offer your support.

Should you feel you would like a textbook for either your own background reading or to distribute to the participants free of charge we recommend, Moffat, S. (2011). PowerPoint 2010 Advanced. Bookboon. Available online http://bookboon.com/en/textbooks/it-programming/powerpoint-2010-advanced or access the PDF CD version here. (A Bookboon text also exists for PowerPoint 2007 here)

Also note that the final activity, Task 5, is a recommended Portfolio Task and participants have been told the work is to be submitted on completion.
