. Lets face it, a majority of us hate school. The whole rules bullshit and what not, but this isn't what this topic is focused on. This topic is directed towards ways to do your school projects and how to excel at them. Whereas I do not know of any yet, I am willing to update the OP when people post new ways to spice up your presentations or use different programs to create it.
. Now, the project I am doing is on the 1920's, and we have to do an outline... I was curious where would I find a program that I could download a Text To Speech and somehow mash it up with some pictures and what not. I am not that technologically inclined in the software aspect so excuse me if I may be ignorant.
. Please try to make sure this doesn't get off-topic onto the shitty parts of school, and stay on topic with the school project aspect.
Text to speech more than likely wouldn't work and would sound like shit, I'd suggest embedding a vocaroo recording of YOURSELF reading the presentation/outline into the program.
Cut speech from different videos. That would be awesome
I don't hate school, I just hate the people there
I quite enjoy education, especially when being taught interesting stuff like maths and science...
I did an entire Physics project in Flash when I was 13, I wrote a History project on Human Evolution (it's history!)...

I thought about it, but than what program would I use to combine it with a video clip and picture clips.. Also, Can't I save the Vocaroo as an MP3 and than splice it?

Well, you can say that for anyplace... But the main reason why I hate it is ignorant ass teachers... \:

I used to hate history, but I am taking a rather liking to history lately... WW I/II Interest me
I enjoy learning, but I absolutely hate school. Rote learning is complete rubbish, I've always wanted to attend a Socratic discussion-style school with small class sizes but we don't have the 40 grand for tuition to go to places like Exeter or Andover.
My public online school is the next best thing, I learn what I want to learn about in the projects we do, it's great. I did a project on the First Crusade last semester, it was fascinating.
Some school's offer independent study courses which are just phenomenal. Going from knowing nothing about Napoleon other than that he was "short" to knowing a comprehensive history of the Egyptian campaign in 6 weeks was awesome.

Just curious, but why is your grammar and capitalization so awful Lachz0r?
The reason as to why I have such shitty threads is because I do not have much knowledge and come to Facepunch to inquire about how to go about things.
Try to make your presentations interesting, don't be afraid to ask if you can use a different cooler program. Just be creative. I remember watching a video were a guy presented a speech using a level he made in littlebigplanet.

Have a bunch of gangsters drive in and shoot everyone halfway into the presentation, that should spice things up a bit
pretend there are no vaccines and call in sick with the mumps
Make an informative song about your subject, put some kickass instrumentals under it and make a music video and tadah a fun presentation.

I guess the majority of 'us' are dumb and don't know what school is for.

I'm probably on the verge of being kicked out too. Damn you game addiction :argh:
Gmod.
Do a song and dance routine!
Save all of the work you do for future usage. The essay I wrote for my Senior Project has been used 3+ times at University now.

You said what?
Definitely make a machinima using the Mafia models. I always make Gmod Machinimas for projects when I can and I consistently get awesome grades.
