Using Slideshare in an Educational SettingThe Slideshare program offers many benefits to individuals in the educational setting. This program allows project participants the ability to access presentations while they are in different locations. With this program, access is granted to an unlimited amount of individuals dependent on what the author determines. Presentations can also be shared privately with colleagues, intranets, and private websites. This is a great benefit to teachers and students because it is compatible with several formats (ppt, open office, PDF, Word, etc.).

Slide Share Slide Share is a web-based tool that can be used to share

presentations or other documents with other groups of people. Teachers can create and share PowerPoint presentations with their students.

Slideshare (www.slideshare.net) is a Web 2.0 site designed for users to post their presentations. Slideshare is not designed specifically for educators, but it does hold educational value. Students and teachers can share and access presentations stored on the internet. The documents can be accessed from internet-connected computers. Several formats are supported for the delivery of the presentations. This is the type of site you would use at your own work station during lesson prep. With that being said, Slideshare does have some very good presentations for you to download to be used during lesson delivery.
