About Student Presentations:
The Student Presentation tool can be used for collaborative group or single member presentations (PowerPoint or other Internet compatible files) delivered to either the instructor or entire class.
Adding the Student Presentation Tool:
Log into a course, select the button “Add Page or Tool”.
Under the column for "Evaluation & Activity Tools", select “Student Presentations”.
Type in a title, select the location for the links (under Course Menu or/and on Organizer page) and click "Add".
Creating Presentation Groups:
Click on the newly added Student Presentations icon or link.
Select the button for "Generate Groups".
Choose the type of Group to be generated (collaborative groups or single student), depending on group choice select what to do with "Additional Students", if desired choose to create a "Private" Discussion Topic for group members (if more than one member was chosen for a group) and click "Generate".
Groups are then generated. Students now can log in to begin working on Student Presentations.
As a student, each group member would click "Edit" (only members of a group will have access to the "Edit" button for their group).
Within a group area, students use buttons on the right to create, delete, edit and upload files.
Accessing Student Files:
As the Instructor, you have access to all uploaded works via the Manage Files area. Click on "Control Panel" from anywhere in the course.
Select "Manage Files".
Scroll down to the folder called "Student_pres".
Click to open file, open individual group folders to access materials that have been uploaded.
Students can view the WebCT Student Orientation for information on how to work with the Student Presentation Tool
