Purposes of PowerPoint
Presentation tool to enhance classroom instruction.
Interactive tool for test/quiz preparation. Student Presentation Tool Communicate with Parents
Keep In Mind
A PowerPoint presentation is, at best, a summary tool. Students should use the multimedia elements to enhance content, not subsitute for it.
Just because you can do something with PowerPoint doesn’t mean you should.
PowerPoint Project Create a project with at least 4 slides Teach an Academic Concept or How to Make
Something (sandwich, craft, etc..) Use Varied Text Layouts Use a Design Template Add Clipart and Modify Clipart Use Varied Levels of Bullets on Slides Add Slide Transitions (Slide Show…Slide
Transition) on each slide (Vary the transitions on each slide)
Add Some Type of Animation Save into Your Folder
Let’s take a look at What NOT to Do
Embedded Video
Video can play automatically or upon clicking the image of theVideo.
Audio
Audio can be embedded to play throughout, on one slide or at the beginning.
Audio can be from CD or from recording narration with a microphone. Click here to open SOUND RECORDER
Rehearse and Timing
Run PowerPoint manually or let it run your show automatically.
Take digital pics of your class every now and then. Photograph some of the work done, then make a looping automatic presentation that runs while your parents wait their turn for conferences.
Bullet Levels
This is the main bullet…if I hit “enter” Then “tab” I get this bullet.

Links
Hyperlinks can go to the Internet http://www.cnn.com/
They can connect to another slide Slide #1
Or they can connect to another file PowerPoint Handout
You can even use a link to open a blank document. New Word File – Open and type a summary.
Saving Options
If students are working from home, the best option is to: File > “Package for CD” Student will need a CD burner and blank CD-R or
CD-RW to do this. Save As WebPage
This will convert your presentation so it will work on the web. Do this with classroom presentations so student can view them again and again.
Printing Options
Print each slide out onto separate pages or print a ready made handout.
Print What? Select “handouts” ThenSelect how many slides per page. Usually3 per page is a good choice.
If you are printing a handout to copy, then Select “Properties” Then select Black and White if you are printing to a color printer.
