Overview
Sharing Visual Stories with Google Slides
Now we're moving on from writing articles to arranging images into presentations. Google Slides is a surprisingly powerful tool not only for presentations, but for image manipulation and online publishing. In this course, we'll only be scraching the surface of what you can do with Slides, but we'll cover these concepts more in-depth in the Google Slides Section of the Yearbook Publishing Course.
During this part of ELA 9.3, here the key skills you'll learn:
How to build visual narratives using Google Slides.
How to find, arrange, and cite images.
Strategies to mentally prepare for public presentations.
Sharing a group message with individual perspectives.
