Happy Halloween!
In today's class we went into more detail about using powerpoint. We learned different ways to use powerpoint effectively and in which instances to use the techniques we learned.
Like any other situation in the world there are possibilities of problems with powerpoint. The main problem that we talked about was how to save a powerpoint presentation so that all the original features were incorporated. This is often a problem because different versions of powerpoint support different features. If you save a presentation on the version you are using and try to open it up somewhere else, the version of powerpoint might not be the same. This would lead to your presentation not functioning properly. There are a few ways to solve this problem.
*Try to check if your presentation works on the computer you will be using for the presentation beforehand, if possible.
-Save your file as an older version of powerpoint (2000)
-Use the pack and go feature that saves all the aspects of your presentation
If you will not be there to present the presentation you have put together. There are two ways to go about making this a good experience for your audience.
-Saving the powerpoint as a show (This means that the powerpoint will run all on it's own as an automatic slideshow once opened)
-Create an interactive powerpoint presentation (To do this you put in simple navigation features to allow the viewer to go through the presentation themselves. This works well for storyline based and instructional presenations.)
