Interactive presentation towards students’ engagement

Abstract

Electronic presentations have gained increasing importance in the education process of students. In recent times, a majority of presentation systems have been used for creating static presentations that cannot be easily changed during the presentation. This disadvantage prevents the instructor from reacting accordingly to students’ initiatives. The present study demonstrates the use of a presentation system for Tablet computers supporting multi-touch screens. The new presentation system expands the capabilities of the instructor during presentations and allows him to gain better interactivity with students. The complete system is comprised of two main applications: The first one is used for creating presentations using multi-touch screen, and the second one helps the instructor in the presentation process.
