Slideshare -- Great Resource for Educators



So, I am mucking about (I love my UK friends) on google today to gather information to update my presentation on ethics for my introduction to hospitality and tourism course with 205 students in two weeks.  I type "business ethics presentations" into google and lots of powerpoint presentations show up that one can use without permission (as long as cite source) and those that would like you to get permission.

Then I come across a gold mine resource for educators, known as http://www.slideshare.net/ and looks like the YouTube of powerpoints.  So I muck about at Slideshare website and find some amazing resources for educators such as this powerpoint that was uploaded on making great presentations, which is actually pretty darn good if you want to know if your powerpoint presentations stink:

So if you have some time today check it out.  It may be a way for you to share your work with others or learn a thing or two to help you make a presentation of your own.  Good stuff!
