EdTech Tool Uses:SlideRocket is an online tool to make PowerPoint-like presentations (indeed you can import your PowerPoint or Google Slides presentations as editable files in SlideRocket or start from scratch). Because SlideRocket is an online facility you can quickly and easily integrate content from other online services (such as Flickr or YouTube ) and utilize plug-ins from Yahoo! and Twitter to extend functionality and quickly add pre-formatted content to your slides, which can include embedding live and real time data in your slides such as tweets from Twitter, data from Google Sheets and stock quotes from Yahoo! Finance). You can also collaborate with others by sharing presentations and slides to facilitate reuse and consistency with version management to help manage the process. SlideRocket presentations can be embedded in a webpage, blog, LMS page, etc. as well as sharing directly on the SlideRocket website by unique URL. When the need arises to present in a situation where you won't have internet access, you can sync presentations to from the cloud to SlideRocket's Desktop Presenter and present directly from a PC. Also, SlideRocket's HTML5 viewer allows for presentations on any HTML5 compliant device.
