Power Point Kiosk

One way to use Power Point Kiosks in the classrooms to help enhance my teaching and student learning is to have the students explore a topic on their own, that way they can move at their own pace. Another way you can use power points to enhance lessons is to have the kids explore them after teaching the initial lesson to search for fun interesting facts. Power point kiosks are another way to learn it can reach out to students that prefer self learning.

The learners who are self sufficient would benefit from this project. Also, the students who prefer to be in control and hands on with projects would enjoy this task because it is hands on move at your own pace. This is also a group project, therefore students who prefer to work in groups will succeed with this project more so than the students who prefer to work independently. The students who will most likely struggle with this project are the ones who do not motivate themselves and push them selves to learn all of the information. The students that need the student teacher interaction would also struggle with this assignment.

After watching my classmate’s presentations I realized that the possibilities of topics are endless. You can use the power point kiosk with any subject and where from science to history and so on. I thought it was clever when the dinosaur group used little dinosaur icons as their back buttons and so forth. After looking at other students projects it has encouraged me to use kiosk in my classroom often.
