Task 1: View an Office Mix and Analytics

·         Participants will complete the Office Mix entitled: Exploring the Mix Taskbar (5 min) for Bell Work

·         The presenter will show the participants the analytics

·         Session presenter needs to bring up the mix they had participants complete during bell work. Use this to examine the analytics you can receive from an Office Mix.

Analytics  

·         Slide summary  

·         Shows number of visitors, views, average time spent, duration of the slide  

·         Are students viewing the slides? 

·         How long? 

·         Are they looking at the slide longer than it took you to create it, or are they just clicking and moving on? 

·         Slides with questions 

 

·         Addition of percentage correct 

·         If you click on the more link you can see how each student did and the time they spend on the slide 

·         You can download an Excel file of the analytics  

Task 2: Create a new Power Point and Insert a Slide Recording using Mix

·         Open Power Point and create a new presentation

·         Notice the Mix Add-On

·         Review how participants can download Mix Add-On if it is not on the computer in their classroom https://mix.office.com/en-us/Home

·         Sign-In with your Office 365 account for School or Work

·         Title the first slide

·         Participants will create a slide recording on the first slide explaining what the PPT will cover

·         Save the PPT after the first slide is complete

·         On the Mix Tab choose Slide Recording, below is the slide recording menu.

This is the menu that participants will see on the right side of the screen.

·         Participants can choose to turn the camera on or off. If the camera is turned on you can move the video of yourself anywhere on the screen.

·         Step 1: click on the record button, stop button is next to the record button.

·         To advance slides use the arrows, if a slide has animations then the Star arrow will be highlighted.

**Best practice is to do a recording for each slide individually**

·         You can turn slide notes on if you have them typed in.

 

·         Inking: When slide recording is in process you can use the inking menu to annotate on the slide.

 

·         Review the recording and SAVE


Task 3: Create a Slide Recording with Inking

·         Create a new slide with content

·         Use the Slide Recording option they just explored to explain the content on the slide.  Use the Inking feature

·         Save and Preview the slide

Task 4: Add a question to an Office Mix Presentation

·         Create a new blank slide

·         Select Quizzes and Video Apps icon

·         Ask a question related to the content explained or to gain prior knowledge

Once you choose a question type you can then enter the question and choose from the available options based on the question type shown.

 

Below is a multiple choice question type, notice that you can choose to have a single choice or multiple choice, and provide feedback as part of your options.

 

**You cannot add images or video to the question, however you can add them to the slide and put the question next to them**

Task 5: Insert a Screen Recording

·         Create a new blank slide

·         A screen recording is different from a slide recording in that you are recording everything that is occurring on the desktop.

·         You can record either the entire screen or a region of the screen

·         To stop recording the screen push the mouse to the top of the screen OR hit Windows Logo Key + Shift + Q

Examples:

·         Open Word and do screen recording of how to use the equation editor in Word.

·         Open Britannica Online and show students how to get started with research and locate primary sources

·         Open iNow and show students how to check their grades

Task 6: Insert an App into the presentation (optional)

·         The Presenter can demonstrate the next option or have the participants add an app or video (depending on time)

·         Create a new slide

·         Select Quizzes and Video Apps icon

*They are both a part of the Microsoft App Store.

·         Show the participants a few of the options available

Here I chose to add the Khan Content App, it allows me to search for a video and then insert it directly into my presentation.

Task 7: Insert a video from online or the desktop

·         Create a new blank slide

·         Participants will insert video from the Insert Tab in PowerPoint. **Online video cannot be inserted from the Mix Tab**
