11.5 Thing #9

I had come across slideshare previously. Often when I attend a conference it is easier to just watch and listen to presentations than try to take notes. Presenters are great about posting their PowerPoint on slideshare and I can then view at my leisure or download for further study.
What great tools for teachers. Many teachers use PowerPoint to teach their lessons, posting on slideshare or another of the hosting sites allow students access to lectures they might have missed due to an absence. Our students often have home computers but do not always have access to Microsoft Office which means no PowerPoint. 280 slides is FREE and a great tool for the students.
