SOCIAL NETWORKS AND LEARNING THROUGH PRESENTATIONS ONLINE

At first sight it may seem that there is little in common between developing a Power Point presentation and interacting in a flexible way with a remote audience. However, some interesting approaches have recently appeared in social websites. These developments allow distributing, commenting on, and even building all sorts of presentations collaboratively. This current monographic review will approach the issue from a technological and pedagogical view insisting, as usual, on the value these new developments of the web 2.0 might have regarding real learning-teaching with Secondary and Upper Secondary students. The subjects that will be dealt with will be: - Presentations, cognitive styles and netgens. - Online presentations and educational social networks. - Web tools to develop and share presentations. - Didactic approach for the effective use of online presentations.
