INTRODUCTION TO POWER POINT PROJECT
PURPOSE:
This project is designed to introduce you to Microsoft Power Point, a software
package that allows you to create slide presentations with graphics and sounds.
Your goal will be to create a Power Point presentation about your life and
interests.
Think
of Power Point as a method of outlining your life and interests. In an outline,
you focus on the key points that you wish to share. You do the same thing with
Power Point. The only difference is that sound, animations, and graphics can be
added so that your presentation is a true multimedia presentation.
Here
are some of the basic requirements:
1.
You must
create at least 6 slides. Each slide should have a theme that looks at some
important aspect of your life. Like a true outline, there can be several
sub-points included under every main theme.
2.
You must
use a Power Point template for your presentation to make sure that your
presentation is consistent in style and format (HINT: Experiment with the
features in the “Format” menu).
3.
You must
include graphics from the Microsoft Clip Art Gallery to enhance your work.
4.
You must
use some type of animation to move from screen to screen or topic to topic
(HINT: Experiment with the “Slide Show” menu).
If
at any time while you are working you would like to see your slides in action,
simply go to the View menu and click on “Slide Show.” Press the space bar
each time you are ready to see the next slide or action.
Open
any existing presentations for a Power Point example.
