These are pictures of flowers I've taken from my garden and from around the island. I used slideshare to create a slideshow of the pictures. It is easy to use but the uploads may take time depending on the size of your file and the speed of your server.
Teachers and students can have fun taking pictures then uploading them to slideshare for a slideshow presentation. There is no limit to the number of presentations that can be created. Presentations can be presented directly from the website or the url can be embedded into your blog page. Slideshows can be created for presentations in social studies, science, language arts, and even math. Teachers can also create a slideshow of vocabulary words. There are many uses for this internet tool. Teachers can also use the features to create lesson plans that can be shared with other teachers.
Using slideshare.com as a means for uploading my pictures into a slideshow is one way to present my photographs without the expense of developing the pictures. Slideshare is a free internet tool for sharing slide presentations. It boasts to be the "largest community for showing presentations on the web."
For those with limited technological skills, this is the tool for you. All you need to do is create a FREE account. Download your selected pictures to a folder (one that can be easily accessible for upoading) to in your computer. You will need to establish an account - which is free. All that's left to do is upload the pictures in the order you want to show them. The step by step directions are very easy to follow. The final product is worth the time and effort.
