When I use voice-over PPTs. I plan on instroducing discussion questions into my lesson to generate some interaction with my students.
I have learned that it is okay to not have to use every single learning tool for every subject taught, as long as the tool chosen enhances learning outcomes.

There are many tools to aid in virtual learning, including virtual classes using audio/video-enabled two-way communication, blogs and wikis where students can share documents and learning products, podcasts that can be used to disseminate lectures, and e-portfolios where students can post work or projects.

Using all the resources that are given to us to give to our students is very important the more you learn about technology the more easier is going to be to add it to our teaching to motivate our students.
Feedback will be key from the students, on what tools to use or not use.
It is important to spend time assessing the technology available to determine its appropriateness for the course being taught. It is not a one-size-fits all situation.
Teaching styles and technology tools must go hand and hand for students to be success and for all methods to achieve the objectives.
