Himiko Negishi-Wood, Language Consultant
Description:
In this workshop, we will explore how to use PowerPoint effectively in your Japanese class to create a range of interesting, engaging and interactive teaching materials. Participants will first gain experience using PowerPoint animations to make simple and fun quizzes. We will then run through some additional functions including how to insert images and sounds, as well as other animation techniques such as the page turn effect to create picture books. While the Japanese resources introduced in this session are aimed at primary level, the functions we will cover can be applied at any level.
