Technical details For creating visuals

1. Chapter 13 (pp. 323-327).

2. A sarcastic video about what to avoid in Power Point slides Life After Death PowerPoint

For sharing the slides

1. Use SlideShare to post the presentation

2. Slide share does not transfer animations, so I do not recommend using this feature in your slides.

3. Embed the presentation posted on SlideShare into a post in the Forum. This quick reference describes which code to use.

4. Follow the same instructions for embedding as you do for the video.

Step 5: Discussions

After you post, - Study the material suggested by your colleagues in the forum.- Respond to the questions posted by your colleagues, focusing

on applying the reading from this or previous weeks’ chapters and other materials that we have studied

- Care for the thread that you have started, by responding to the comments and helping others
