This lesson introduces you to the basic features of PowerPoint which are particularly valuable in

the teaching and learning environment. You will learn how to use PowerPoint to capture your

ideas in outline form and convert those ideas into multimedia presentations. You will also learn

how to use the application to create your own presentations both from scratch and with the help

of one of the PowerPoint Wizards.

Most people think of a slide show as a way of presenting a series of still images or

photographs using a slide projector. If you think about it, however, a slide does not have to be a

still image; using PowerPoint it can also be an audio or video clip. For that matter, a slide does

not have to be even a picture; it can also be text, an outline of ideas, whatever you want.

PowerPoint provides an easy-to-use multimedia presentation production system, which you

will no doubt enjoy learning and which you and your students will find useful for individual or

group projects of all kinds.

In the various courses that you take as an Education major you learn how to design curricula,

with lesson plans and unit plans. You also learn methodologies for effective teaching. The better

the teacher you are, the more PowerPoint will empower you in your work.

Here, then, are the topics that will be covered in this lesson:

•

•

•

•

•

•

introductory thoughts about presentations;

PowerPoint at work;

building the presentation;

adding bells and whistles to the presentation;

hiding slides and using Action Buttons;

printing presentation handouts.

A caveat before you begin:

Till now, the steps to accomplish the tasks assigned have been rather detailed. This time,

however, the directions will be less specific, especially in the latter half of the lesson, because

PowerPoint is a program you can figure out by playing with it. You’ll find that you’ll soon

become confident about how to design and develop high quality multimedia slide presentations.
