All students need to find a way to import, manipulate, and present their images, videos, ideas, creations, etc. If students use sites like Slideshare, they can gain access to these projects wherever and whenever they want. They don't have to keep up with a flash drive, they don't have to own a laptop... they create their project, upload it, and it's there for them anytime. In addition, slideshare and other hosting sites would be great for group projects! All students have access and can make changes from home while they chat using their skype cameras, etc. These are great resources that I haven't spent much time with, but for which I'll try to use more.
A slideshare site would have saved my life last November. I had a visiting author come with a Mac laptop, and we didn't have the convertor she needed to use Mac to present. We had to get page by page slides from her publicist and I had to put them together into a power point while she presented to the first group. Insanity.
