screen capturing system with two layer display for Powerpoint Presentation to enhance classroom education
Educational Technology & Society, 2011Co-Authors: Yen-shou Lai, Hung-hsu TsaiAbstract:This paper proposes a new Presentation system integrating a Microsoft Powerpoint Presentation in a two-layer method, called the TL system, to promote learning in a physical classroom. With the TL system, teachers can readily control hints or annotations as a way of making them visible or invisible to students so as to reduce information load. In addition, the system can synchronize a teacher’s lecturing actions for a Powerpoint Presentation with his/her voice and also create web-based multimedia materials. By reviewing these multimedia materials, students can recall the problem-solving skills the teacher taught them in class. In this study, an exploratory test was carried out with 12 teachers and 91 students in a college of technology. Research data were collected through the instructional technology use questionnaire (ITUQ) for teachers as well as through the course attitudes scale (CAS) and the mathematics achievement test (MAT) for students. The results revealed that the TL system helps teachers to have a smooth teaching process of presenting teaching materials. The students in the experimental group had a better course attitude and achieved higher MAT scores than did those in the conventional group.

Integrating Annotations into a Dual-Slide Powerpoint Presentation for Classroom Learning
Educational Technology & Society, 2011Co-Authors: Yen-shou Lai, Hung-hsu TsaiAbstract:This study introduces a learning environment integrating annotations with a dual-slide Powerpoint Presentation for classroom learning. Annotation means a kind of additional information to emphasize the explanations for the learning objects. The use of annotations is to support the cognitive process for Powerpoint Presentation in a classroom. The construction of the learning environment is based on cognitive theory of multimedia learning so as to figure out the impact of using annotation in classroom learning. Powerpoint materials and their corresponding multimedia annotations can be simultaneously displayed in the environment. While teaching the current Powerpoint slide, it is displayed through one channel (or projector) and the related annotation or its previous slide is exhibited through the other channel (or the other projector). This manner can scaffold learners’ coherent mental rePresentations so as to enhance their learning performance. In this study, an exploratory method was conducted with 170 sophomore and junior students ranging in age between 18 and 21 years. Survey results indicated that the proposed system based on cognitive theory can effectively help students in the experimental group to have better learning efficacy for lectures with dual-slide Powerpoint Presentation than that of the conventional group.

education techniques for lifelong learning giving a Powerpoint Presentation the art of communicating effectively
Radiographics, 2004Co-Authors: Jannette CollinsAbstract:Effectiveness of an oral Presentation depends on the ability of the speaker to communicate with the audience. An important part of this communication is focusing on two to five key points and emphasizing those points during the Presentation. Every aspect of the Presentation should be purposeful and directed at facilitating learners' achievement of the objectives. This necessitates that the speaker has carefully developed the objectives and built the Presentation around attainment of the objectives. The best Presentations are rehearsed, not so that the speaker memorizes exactly what he or she will say, but to facilitate the speaker's ability to interact with the audience and portray a relaxed, professional, and confident demeanor. Rehearsal also helps alleviate stage fright. The most useful method of controlling nervousness is to visualize success. When showing images, it is important to orient the audience with an adequate description, point out the relevant findings, and allow enough time for the audience to assimilate the information before moving on. This can be facilitated with appropriate use of a laser pointer, cursor, or use of builds and transitioning. A Presentation should be designed to include as much audience participation as possible, no matter the size of the audience. Techniques to encourage audience participation include questioning, brainstorming, small-group activities, role-playing, case-based examples, and directed listening. It is first necessary to motivate and gain attention of the learner for learning to take place. This can be accomplished through appropriate use of humor, anecdotes, and quotations. Attention should be given to posture, body movement, eye contact, and voice when speaking, as how one appears to the audience will have an impact on their reaction to what is presented.

education techniques for lifelong learning making a Powerpoint Presentation
Radiographics, 2004Co-Authors: Jannette CollinsAbstract:Most radiologists are now creating their own image and text slides for oral Presentations. Powerpoint software offers a tremendous number of options for personalizing slides. Having choices of font, color scheme, display options, sound, and graphics provide an opportunity to enhance a Presentation in ways that were not possible with 35-mm slides and slide projectors. However, inappropriate use of Powerpoint features can substantially degrade the quality of a Presentation. Many of the “rules” for creating an effective Presentation given with slide projectors apply to electronic Presentations, but some of the options available with only electronic Presentations (eg, building, transitioning, and sound) necessitate new “rules.” The article provides tips on how to develop effective text and image slides for electronic Presentation by using Powerpoint, including the appropriate use of text, font, color, sound, graphics, slide display, and radiologic images. © RSNA, 2004

effectiveness of simulation on knowledge acquisition knowledge retention and self efficacy of nursing students in jordan
Clinical Simulation in Nursing, 2013Co-Authors: Laila Akhuzaheya, Muntaha Gharaibeh, Ziad M AlostazAbstract:Abstract Background The purpose of this quasi-experimental research study was to examine the effect of high-fidelity basic life support (BLS) simulation on knowledge acquisition, knowledge retention, and self-efficacy of Jordanian nursing students. Method The experimental group (n = 52) received traditional teaching of BLS (3-hour Powerpoint Presentation and demonstration on static manikin in groups of 6 to 7 students) and high-fidelity BLS simulation, while the control group (n = 58) received only traditional teaching of BLS (3-hour Powerpoint Presentation and demonstration on static manikin in groups of 6 to 7 students). Results Neither knowledge acquisition nor knowledge retention showed any significant differences between the groups; however, self-efficacy showed significant differences. Conclusions Students trained with high-fidelity simulation achieved higher scores in acquired and retained BLS knowledge and higher self-efficacy perception, indicating the value of simulation in improving knowledge and self-efficacy in nursing students. Nursing students must be educated with the most realistic technologies available to improve patients' safety.

effect of simulation on knowledge of advanced cardiac life support knowledge retention and confidence of nursing students in jordan
Journal of Nursing Education, 2013Co-Authors: Loai Issa Tawalbeh, Ahmad TubaishatAbstract:This study examined the effect of simulation on nursing students' knowledge of advanced cardiac life support (ACLS), knowledge retention, and confidence in applying ACLS skills. An experimental, randomized controlled (pretest-posttest) design was used. The experimental group (n = 40) attended an ACLS simulation scenario, a 4-hour Powerpoint Presentation, and demonstration on a static manikin, whereas the control group (n = 42) attended the Powerpoint Presentation and a demonstration only. A paired t test indicated that posttest mean knowledge of ACLS and confidence was higher in both groups. The experimental group showed higher knowledge of ACLS and higher confidence in applying ACLS, compared with the control group. Traditional training involving Powerpoint Presentation and demonstration on a static manikin is an effective teaching strategy; however, simulation is significantly more effective than traditional training in helping to improve nursing students' knowledge acquisition, knowledge retention, and confidence about ACLS.
