World History
We do a ton of collaboration at my school so I can tell you that I have added very little to the PowerPoint above. But I did upload it into the "Presentation" mode (Google's name for PowerPoint) and since I my district requires us to use Blackboard, I just link it from there to my Google Docs file. This then allows me to change my presentation without uploading. For example I just added my name in hieroglyphics to one of the last slides and did not have to re-upload it into Blackboard. I can, as you will see on some of the slides, insert video clips from youtube which is very hard (although possible) to do w. PowerPoint. The nicest way is that you can share editing rights with your peers. So if you find something new, as I did this morning, all the teachers in your professional learning community could benefit. Here is the site to be able to do the slide show above as well as documents and other things. Here is a site that will tell you how to do it By the way, that is my family in slide number 10 as we had the great fortune of going to Egypt last April.

- China Powerpoint
I started this blog (and the US and government ones) to be able to share with teachers everywhere which is why I so appreciate all the e-mails I get for items to put on the website. I can't claim that I made all of this PowerPoint as I inherited...
- Ancient India
One of the things I live about Google Docs presentation mode is the ease with which people can share and work together on items. This is the PowerPoint I will be using for my India unit. Check back in a few weeks and you will see that I will...
