Web Slides


Have you seen the WebSlides option in Diigo? It is a great way to share multiple web sites at once in a presentation. View an example WebSlide at http://slides.diigo.com/list/maggie_diigo/elearning. Basically this is a way to turn bookmarks and feeds into interactive slideshows. You can add a voice over or music to the background of your WebSlide.

The site description gives these as a few ways to use WebSlides...
  • Provide a quick briefing, a simple tutorial or guided tour on any subject.
  • Re-mix and re-package your blog posts to encourage browsing and embedding.
  • Create a guided tour for any website.
  • Bundle important course resources for students.
Could you imagine taking your students on a virtual fieldtrip based on a specific criteria? For example, a WebSlide that includes sites related to the desert. You could create a WebSlide that included sites for all types of deserts in various locations. The uses are endless.
