For this assignment, we were to create an interactive and informative PowerPoint including quiz questions for comprehension assessment. My PowerPoint was a basic introduction to the skeletal system geared towards a tenth grade biology class. The concepts were very simple and in my classroom I would include much more information throughout the unit but the idea of an interactive PowerPoint is great and something I will absolutely utilize as an educator. Especially with science, media presentations are very helpful to convey the large amounts of factual knowledge that students are expected to understand. I could use these easily in a Biology, Chemistry, or Physics class. PowerPoint presentations can become tedious and boring and students' minds tend to wander. By incorporating questions throughout the presentation, students are kept in check and the teacher can make sure they are paying attention.
The process of incorporating a quiz in a PowerPoint presentation is surprisingly quite simple. Additional 'Correct' and 'Incorrect' slides must be added after each question and then internal hyperlinks formed between the answer choices and the appropriate 'correct' and 'incorrect' slides. Also, you add internal hyperlinks to the 'correct' and 'incorrect' slides to go to the next question or back to the original question, respectively.
