Slideshare is super and would be even better if it supported Activstudio! There is a huge push to stop using powerpoint and start using Activstudio, which makes sense since SB is spending loads and loads of money on the software and hardware. I didn't use powerpoint much before, and so don't have much that I am giving up. You can share flipcharts with students, parents and colleagues, even those without the software, because Promethean offers a free flipchart viewer. You can use your flipchart to make a screencast to share, or you could create podcasts that go with your flipchart.
Yes it is important for the students to learn to use slideshare. I think that the students should learn how to use powerpoint, and these sites are great for sharing those presentations with family and friends. Since our goal is collaborative learning, students need to know how to share their work with others, and for others to comment and learn from that work.
