Technology Notes

Power Point (Session 2)

On the agenda this week was an introduction of PowerPoint’s more intermediate features. I used a short PowerPoint (Intro to Powerpoint) to show and discuss them before our group moved to the tech lab. I had a lot of fun putting together the theme, sound, and custom animation to show what could be done with PowerPoint. I think it got the group excited too ;)

In the tech lab everyone got started on making a PowerPoint using the resources I put together (see below). Next time we meet I’d like the group to spend the first couple of minutes sharing what they learned. Some accomplished more than others, but all were able to get a great deal done so that they could build on what they learned. I can’t wait to see the finished products!!

In fact, I would like to post a copy of the finished PowerPoints so that we can share them with the rest of the faculty…..
