Trying to be a teacher??

Question:Hello my friends, I just wondered if anyone had any really great ideas on a power point presentation for my intro to education class. Normally, it's the same old stuff and the class can be so boring watching everyones power point presentation, People are yawning everywhere. We have to do our power point presentation on Social realities confronting today's schools, OR Ethical and Legal issues in education in the United States. Any suggestions on a really good subjects that would really entertain the class and keep them interested and me as well, Please help?

Answers:
Ok

Why does it have to be those two areas. That's the boring part.

Why can't it be anything.

Are you teaching power point or PROPEGANDA

It's sounds like, we need to do a Power Point Presentation on Chairman Mao's view of Chinese Cultural Revolution.

You're making it the PARTY LINE.

I'd so the Simpsons making fun of the system. That's what I'd do.

I'd have Homer as Head of the Board of Education.

Why does SCHOOL have to make assignments PROPEGANDA.

Is this some brainwashing concept.

Now, if you made a Power Point presentation on ORIENTATION for NEW STUDENTS it might be better.

But you expect students to GLORIFY a PRISON INSTITUTION known as SCHOOL and wonder why they are apatheic.

YOu have metal dectors in your school. Maybe I'd put that into my power point presetnation and have some male teacher doing a search of a girl because she set off the alarm.

That's how I view the GLORY of the EDUCATIONAL system.

And I'll bet that's how your students view it too.

What's wrong with a Power Point presentation on Alisha Keys.

What's wrong with a Power Poont presentation on the Wii

What's wrong with a power point presentation on Kelly Clarkson.

Why are you trying to make them glorify the STATE.

Hitler and Stalin and Mao used to require that.

I thought the US, Canada and England were above that.

Teaching kids to participate in propeganda is disgusting.

We have a NASTY war in Iraq going on and MOST of the WORLD doesnt' support it.

Why are you into GLORIFYING how RIGHTIOUS things are, when more than HALF of everyone views us as EVIL.

Pick on something the kids can get behind.

Here, go watch Leni Reifenstahlas 16mm power point dissertation on Hitler with "Triumph of the Will" a great propeganda pieces from a brilliant director.
If you have the time, make or find a video relevant to your topic and add it to your PowerPoint. That always grabbed the attention of the audience when I make presentations. You'll definitely score points with the audience too if your presentation has a bit of humor added.
