Over the last few years we have reviewed a number of powerful presentation tools to use with students in class. These include tools such as Haiku Deck, Prezi, Google Presentation, Keynote to mention but a few. Today we are bringing to your radar two more presentation tools with huge educational potential. You can use them to design visually attractive presentations that include a wide range of multimedia content such as text, sound, videos, images, PDFs and many more. They also allow remote presenting allowing you to project your presentations to a bigger screen and remotely control them while going around in the class. And in the case of Swipe, you will also have access to interactive features to poll and gather feedback in real-time from your audience.
1- Swipe
Swipe is an excellent presentation platform to use in your instruction. It allows you to upload your existing presentations or create new ones from scratch and share them live with your students through a generated link. Swipe works across different devices and browsers allowing you to project your presentation on a bigger screen and remotely control it via your mobile device. You will also have access to a number of features to interact with your audience and get their feedback through interactive polls. Other interesting functionalities provided by Swipe include:upload PDFs and images (no limit on file size), create slides with markdown, a responsive interface that adjusts the content of your presentation to any size screen, include videos (from YouTube and Vimeo) and web content to your decks, work with collaborators by allowing them to edit, present or just view presentations, get stats about who has viewed or is viewing your presentations and many more.
