Second Favorite Tool for Teaching


My second favorite tool for teaching is Microsoft Power Point. This tool is used to make slide shows of various ideas or problems. It helps organize the focus of what you are talking about and gives creativity to the user so that they can make it more interesting for those following along. It is great for math teachers because we can use it to make simple problems more interesting or fun. We can use the different transitions and other features to create math problems and have different sections of the problem being worked out appear at different times to help their process of learning. This tool is efficient because it helps make educational materials quicker. It is also effective because it helps the student visualize the problem so it helps them remember the steps better. It enhances learning as well because it helps motivate and engage the students with the different steps appearing at different times.
