DESCRIPTION

The PowerPoint presentations contain dozens of slides featuring concepts and illustrations from the chapters. Teachers can use these presentations to support and illustrate their classroom instruction. Teachers can display the presentations using a video projector, or a television connected to their computer. The CD-ROM includes a K-12 school site-license for the presentations, so they can even be loaded onto computers for individual student viewing and remediation. Owners of Microsoft PowerPoint software can edit the presentations, adding photographs of their studios, or deleting concepts they wish to cover at a later time. No PowerPoint? No problem! You can download a free PowerPoint Viewer on the Microsoft web-site. (You can see example slides at http://www.SCHOOLTV.com) The written tests feature questions based on the text of each chapter. Questions range from basic fact recall to higher level thinking skills and problem-solving scenarios. Tests are featured in Microsoft Word format, for easy editing and formatting. If you don't have Microsoft Word software, you can download a free Microsoft Word viewer that will allow you to open the tests, and copy-paste the content into your preferred word processing program. Every teacher using Television Production: A Classroom Approach, 2nd edition will want to own this valuable teaching resource. Imagine inserting this CD-ROM, opening a professional PowerPoint presentation, and teaching your class using photographs and images from their textbook. Imagine having a ready-made, fully editable test for each chapter. Imagine the time you'll save - time that you can spend with your students creating their video projects.
