PPT/Presentation

Microsoft PowerPoint and Google Presentation are programs that help you put together a slide show for a presentation project. These programs include useful features like an outline section, a notes section, animations, background effects, SmartArt Graphics, transitions, Slide Master, and charts. In IIT, you learn how to use all of these tools.

Tips

-If you go to View>Master>Slide Master, you can edit how the text/title will look on every slide or add an image that you want on each slide.
-A good alternate to using bullet points is to use a SmartArt Graphic. There are multiple graphics available that can be used to show a list, cycle, relationship, process, etc.

-If you click "Format Background" in your toolbox, you can add more than one color or create a pattern for your background.
-Do not use a picture as a background; it is usually hard to read the text.
-When picking photos, look for ones with transparent backgrounds.
-To add animations, click on the star icon at the top of your toolbox.
-When you want to add a graph, you will be given a Microsoft Excel window to enter data.
