Inside Body is an interesting
alternative to producing posters or
leaflets. The high quality appearance
of the work appeals to pupils with
poor literacy or presentation skills.
More able pupils are encouraged to
think carefully about their audience,
the relevance of the information they
select to use and where further information
can be found.
A PowerPoint presentation consists
of a series of slides that can include
images and/or text. More advanced
presentations may also include sounds
and movie clips.
Some pupils may already be familiar
with PowerPoint, and those who are
not can learn the basics very quickly.
The presentation template has deliberately
been kept very simple to facilitate
this.
Pupils are provided with a background
resource document from which to select
information. They insert this text
into their presentation. They choose
relevant pathological images, which
are provided on the PowerPoint template,
and use these to illustrate their
presentation. They can also insert
information that they have researched
from other sources.
The resource is presented as:
- Three
PowerPoint templates containing
pathological slides illustrating
the harmful effects of alcohol,
tobacco or solvents on the body.
- Three
background information documents
with a range of information on each
substance.
- Web
addresses for further information.
- Pupil
sheets on designing a presentation
and using PowerPoint.
