The
PowerPoint presentation or Powerpoint presentation is a commercial
brand of presentation program that has been commonly used in recent
years as a supplement visual aid for teaching lessons and in
discussions in classrooms of secondary schools and higher education
institutions such as colleges or universities. Using the PowerPoint
as an effective visual aid for teaching lessons and in classroom
discussions could be demonstrated by its use as a tool for teaching
lessons in essay writing and as a learning tool that could be used by
students when they have to discuss their essay works to the class and
to their teachers or lecturers.
But
in recent years, another use or application of the Powerpoint
presentation as an educational visual aid that could be used for
teaching lessons and sharing discussions in essay writing in the
classrooms have been demonstrated by both students and teachers or
lecturers. The new application involves the free samples of academic
essays that are usually posted in the websites of essay writing
services or essay writing companies, and other types of websites. A
sample essay could be written by a professional writer employed by
the website where the sample essay is available for free reading and
downloading, or it is a previously written essay from a student who
have finished with his essay and he agreed in providing a copy of his
finished essay to the website.
The
web-based academic writing company could convert several copies of
sample essays into a Powerpoint document format and the Powerpoint
presentation samples of academic essays are also available for free
reading or downloading from the website of the company. A sample
essay that is written and converted into the Powerpoint presentation
document format could be used for a classroom setting in two ways.
The first is when the teacher or lecturer uses the PowerPoint
presentation sample essay as a supplement visual aid for teaching his
students on how an actual academic essays appears.
The
second is when a student is assigned to discuss for the class a
sample academic essay that is saved in PowerPoint presentation
document and compare it to his own essay work that is also saved in a
PowerPoint presentation format. Therefore, the student would be able
to discuss to the class the two previously written essays consisting
of the sample essay and his own essay work. Both of the essays could
would be compared and discussed by being displayed in a large screen
where the computer screen display of the PowerPoint presentation is
being projected.
