Google Slides has some really amazing collaboration features that take presentations to a whole new level! But, it seems the grapics side has been a little slower in adding interesting themes. That changed for me this week thanks to Kasey Bell's posting on the Google in Education Diigo group. She introduced us to Slidescarnival.com, a website of templates. This site provides a variety of templates for graphically telling your informational story. Templates range from simple drawings with sleek and clean layouts to detailed photograph layouts. Each template contains a whole range of slides for sharing data, images, text and other options
To demonstrate some of the templates I created a slide stack of options. I pulled single slides from several different templates to create my story. Move to slide 6 for some simple instructions about using the templates from the site.
Visit slide 7 for my instructions on pulling single slides from multiple presentations - a way to create a hybrid slide stack, like the one below.
One more thing...make sure you include the credit slides for any template you use. There are hardworking artists creating these and we want to give them credit!
