Virtual+Presentations+(Summer,+2011)

One of the assignments for EDES 545 is to create a virtual presentation on a particular technology-related topic. Students in EDES 545 were asked to create a two part presentation: first, a workshop or presentation that introduces the topic and discusses the applications for education. And second, they then had to create a cheat sheet or resource page highlighting some resources, links, and other information that would provide someone with a 'quick and dirty' overview of the topic. This would be a handout for the presentation. Below are the links to the virtual presentations created by students in the summer, 2011 version of EDES 545.
