Teachers in Tiaras

When using a Powerpoint in class, students may not be aware of what they should study more than other information. Although you want your students paying attention to all information you present, on very important slides that they absolutely must know include a small, animated note taking related clip art in the corner of the slide. Whenever the students see this let them know that is is a highly important slide, and they should copy all of it in their notes. Pretty soon, the students will know when they see the animation that they should copy the notes (without your direction). Be sure to switch up the animation and the location of it so that they are always on the look out on every slide for when they should be taking notes.
