Question

Text: The importance of the PowerPoint
as a classroom resource
(Text adapted from Teachers: 5 Tips for Creating Great
PowerPoint Presentations, retrieved
   PowerPoint is a resource developed by Microsoft
and released initially in 1990. It is mainly used in
professional meeting presentations all over the
world.
    One of these professions is in educational area:
teacher.    PowerPoint presentation is spread among
teachers because it is different from lecturing or
teaching with a textbook; it is also a way of sharing
content with students.
    To produce a PowerPoint correctly, teachers need
to know how to put the slides together, it can be an
effective way of reinforcing content to students so
that they are better able to retain it. Otherwise,
teachers can print and distribute the PowerPoint
presentation or post it online, so students can go
back and access it as reference material. However,
if it is not put together correctly, a PowerPoint
presentation can disengage and make students
bored.
   To develop PowerPoint presentation is simple and
it can also provide a fun time noticed by its
characteristics: basic, simple, and not distracting, it
can be focused on keywords; for instance, always
be sure to include a summary slide of what the
presentation is intending to accomplish as well as a
table of contents on the different topics that will be
covered in the program. The summary slide serves
as the main topic and what students should learn
after viewing the presentation. Then, at the end of
the PowerPoint presentation, teachers should
include another summary slide, going over
everything that was just covered and, again,
highlighting the main point.
Bottom line
    PowerPoint presentations need to have a purpose
and the teacher must make sure that the purpose is
understood.
Add pictures

Teachers can reinforce the content with pictures,
charts, symbols, and other images. In fact,
sometimes it’s better to have more pictures than text
in a PowerPoint presentation, because images work
to reinforce a content main point.
     Teachers typically will just share it with their
classes, so they can pull images straight from the
Internet. However, for teachers who are making
more public and widespread presentations,
copyright law needs to be considered (Brazil
Information Access Law nº 12.527; Art. 31;
paragraph 3; item II). Add video
      Pictures can help to reinforce a main point or
support content, as well as videos. Some research
affirm that students enjoy watching videos and
retain information from them well, especially if the
video is engaging, interesting and informative.
Teachers can embed videos right from YouTube or
from their desktops to complement a PowerPoint
presentation.
Practice
      Nothing turns off a class like a poorly put together
PowerPoint presentation, so teachers should
always be sure to do a quick rehearsal before they
present it to the class. While testing it, make sure all
the images load up on the slides, videos load up
properly and audio works, too. Also, it’s important
for teachers to make sure that there’s a way to
connect their computer, or upload anything that’s
storing the PowerPoint presentation, to a larger TV
monitor or projector screen so the whole class does
not have to huddle around a computer screen to
view it. Teachers should also make sure that any
text can be read and understood. Be sure that the
color scheme is good.
Make it fun
    A PowerPoint presentation can be an innovative
way of teaching. It’s a more interesting and
engaging way for students to learn than the typical
lecture. Teachers should embrace this teaching
resource and have fun with it. Throw in some jokes,
possibly some funny pictures and be sure to get
creative with presentations.
      As we previously noted, the more students enjoy
a lecture, presentation, or activity, the more likely
they are to retain information.  After reading the text, choose the correct
alternative about its content.  Alternativa A: This text is about some tools used in classroom Ou Alternativa B: This text explains about how to use a specific
resource when teaching in a classroom Ou Alternativa C: This text contradicts the importance of
PowerPoint uses in a classroom Ou Alternativa D: This text is about the Brazil Information Access
Law (LAI) and the use of PowerPoint and
Youtube

O texto menciona especificamente o PowerPoint como
recurso em sala de aula e não aborda outras ferramentas. 



Por
exemplo, ele diz: "PowerPoint presentation is spread among teachers
because it is different from lecturing or teaching with a textbook; it is also
a way of sharing content with students." 



("A apresentação em PowerPoint é difundida
entre os professores porque é diferente de uma palestra ou ensino com um livro
didático; é também uma forma de compartilhar o conteúdo com os alunos").

professor precisa saber como montar os slides..." e "O slide de
resumo serve como o tópico principal e o que os alunos devem aprender depois de
ver a apresentação").

texto contradiz a importância do uso do PowerPoint em sala de aula.

eficaz, como diz o título: The importance of the PowerPoint as a classroom
resource (A importância do PowerPoint como recurso de sala de aula).



D) Incorreta - Este
texto é sobre a Lei de Acesso à Informação (LAI) do Brasil e o uso de
PowerPoint e YouTube.

uso do PowerPoint como recurso em sala de aula, bem como no uso de vídeos do
YouTube.
