Shared Education For the Online Community

Remember the days of sitting in a classroom or auditorium listening to long drawn out lectures on topics that you just did not care for. College requirements dictated that you sit in this class and pass before you “pass GO and collect $200.”

Now with Lectr, you have the ability to find the topics you like, and listen some some of the world’s best recorded lectures on any topic. These degreed professionals were recorded and now the community benefits by having their lectures shared with the entire online community.

Topics range from Physics, Chemistry, Math, Biology, and Criminal Justice. These recordings come from some of the most prestigious colleges and universites from around the globe, all at your fingertips.

Give it a try, get your education on, and learn something!

PowerPoint Gets A Presentation Face-Lift

For those of us that have had to make PowerPoint presentations time and time again, using the same templates over and over again, it becomes increasingly frustrating because you think there is only so much youc an do. Well luckily, with some savvy searching, and perhaps a little creativity on your end, Powerpoint can become something new, thanks to the bevy of templates on TemplatesWise.com.

Powerpoint presentations can get a fresh face lift with these new, unique backgrounds that can ressurect the drab into the fab. By what I can tell, this site has hundreds upon hundreds of new templates for you to use, that are easy to find based on their categories. You can preview them, and download the ones you like. They also include packs for charts and graphis, looped music, and other creative for your presentations that will keep your presentation visually attractive while you share the important information.

I’ve used this site for a few public speaking engagements already, I’ve been very impressed with it, and I recommend you give it a try. As PowerPoint has gotten on in age, it’s nice to see creative sites like this offering the facelift that it has so badly needed.
