Power Point Presentation Designing.

Learning Objectives

After this lesson, students should be able to:

•Create, edit, save, and print presentation.

•Define aspects of Power Point presentations

•Identify the names and functions of the Power Point interface.

•Add a graphic to a presentation.

•Create and manipulate simple slide shows

•Create slide presentations that include text, graphics, animation, and transitions.

•Use design layouts and templates for presentations.

DEFINITION

•Microsoft Power Point is a professional presentation program that allows the

user to create "presentation slides" that can be displayed on the computer

usually in the form of an outline, to a large audience.

• Generally, Power Point presentations are appealing to users because they are easy to create and edit also generally small enough to fit onto a CD or a U.S.B Jump Drive.

•  Therefore, a user does not have to carry around any slides or slide projector,

and, if necessary, can make any last-minute changes to the presentation.

screen or through a projector that is plugged into the computer.

• A Power Point presentation is a good way to convey pieces of information,

• Complete the task below on your computer.

Task.1

How to Start Microsoft Power Point

There are several ways of starting Power Point. You can start it either by

using the start menu or the Ms-Office shortcut bar on the desktop.

USING THE START MENU

1.       Click on the Start button

2.       Point to Programs

3.       Click on Microsoft Office, then select Microsoft Power Point

The Microsoft Power Point Window appears

4. While on the Microsoft power point window click on the Microsoft power point control Menu the select New.

5. Click to create a new power point presentation and name it as "STEPS"

6. On the first slide type your name and surname as well as class.

7. On the second slide type the first step on this task, the on the second slide the second step, on the third step up to slide 5.

8. To prove that you have mastered the concepts involved in designing power point presentation complete the following task on Socrative Assessment Tool.

                                          Task2. : Exercise.

 If challenges are encountered in understanding the processes involved in creating a power point presentation feel free to contact the teacher on the following link and have a one to one discussion :https://socrative.com/ when you log in as a student and participate in room MADODA5252 on Computer Science Quiz.

In going through this web quest on Power Point Development the main aim to be achieved is to make students able to create a power point presentation in Microsoft Office at the end of the lesson.

This was achieved through arranging the topic into small concepts which are easy to build on then then, e.g. the introduction where clear understanding of the lesson topic is outline as objectives

The Task part where a short practical exercise is to be conducted through following a set of outlined steps.

The processes where apt illustrations are put in place in order to make the learner to grasp the core concept of the lesson by having pictorial views of the processes occurring while mastering the concepts encountered in creating a power point on Microsoft Power Point

In order to effectively evaluate the performance of students on the lesson a Quizzes has been made available on Socrates tool to evaluate students' performances.

In the lesson we have learnt that in order for someone to be able to create a power point presentation the following steps are to be followed.

Steps.

1.       Click on the Start button

2.       Point to Programs

3.       Click on Microsoft Office, then select Microsoft Power Point

The Microsoft Power Point Window appears

4. While on the Microsoft power point window click on the Microsoft power point control Menu the select New.

After selecting New on the forth step, a power point presentation would have been created and the objectives fulfilled. .
