Can you tell me the Macro Security Settings I need to change for Powerpoint 2010. I have tried creating an example exercise of dragging and dropping within this downloaded presentation, however the objects don't seem to move.

I think it is because I haven't changed the Macro security settings. However they look so different in Powepoint 2010 to the macro security instructions specified in the original instructions. Please Help. Many thanks

Caroline

I won't choose iPad since there is a license problem in my country. So I will choose Netbook or Android based tablet.

I prefer netbook since it's more popular then others. The price within our range too. So it won't be too difficult for us to count the cost.

I am trying to set up a drag and drop using a magnifying glass to look at the background image through a blank drawing object. When I run the show, the magnifying glass goes behinf the drawing object and so the glass becomes invisible. I have tried grouping the drawing object with the glass and it still does the same. Any suggestions please. This is for an educational game at my school. thanks with eager anticipation John

I would say iPad but seeing as it's limited in several areas right now (camera, USB port), I had to go with Netbooks. They're the most versatile.

Good point John. It is easier to use netbooks for multiple users. I suppose that means that the pros for using a device like the iPod or iPad would have to be strong to make it worth dealing with the hassle.

I haven't used touches with students. I used Nspire handhelds for a little while and like what they can do. Am not in my own classroom anymore, so I don't get to play as much as I'd like.

Re: What type of device would you choose?

John Sengia — Wed, 15 Sep 2010 13:08:57 -0000

I picked netbooks because devices like the iPod and iPad work best for one user only ( by how things are saved, setup, etc. ) Most devices will have to be used by multiple students throughout the day.

Thanks for your input Phil, some interesting points there for me to think about.

I voted for the netbook as it gives greater functionality than the others for a price not much more than an ipod touch. IMHO the smaller the device the less it can be used for creativity but all devices are capable of being used for consuming. Ipods are fine but can't be used for geocaching & similar activities 'cos Apple forgot to add GPS! #fail. Also, Apple has forced users into a new pricing policy making loadsa apps on loadsa devices expensive. What about something like the LG GT540 Optimus which retails in the UK @ 2/3 the price of an ipod. Finally, asked the students what they already have in their pockets & utilise that.

We have used many handheld devices in classrooms at Challenge CLC - mainly primary. IMHO the smaller the device, the less use it is for creation but they are all good for consuming. There are lots of apps available for maths from the istore but Apple has just changes its pricing policy which means installing loadsa apps on loadsa devices is now quite expensive. Android devices such as the LG GT540 Optimus are cheaper & have more functionality. The hope is that the ipod apps will also be available on Android but free or at least much cheaper.

Thanks Doug. I was really wanting to get an idea of what people would choose if they were choosing (I probably should have made that clearer). I obviously have an idea of what I want to do with whichever device, but at this very early stage I am interested in getting an idea of peoples preference of device if they can only have one in a secondary classroom.

Of course I agree that the 'what' is more important than the 'how' and that's why I am trying to be as informed as possible about the different options for devices and the experience of those who have used them, so that I can then choose the best device (and apps, services, accessories etc) for what we want to be able to do in the classroom.

I appreciate your input.
