Using PowerPoint to Create Presentations

PowerPoint has got to be one of the most versatile programs for creativity out there & almost everyone has it! Last night I taught the first workshop in my serries this year at FLLAC on using it to create presentations. Only 2 people actually attended, but they learned a lot, go to experiment with many features, and generally had a good time. For those of you who could not attend, but would really like to learn how to use PowerPoint, I have placed my handout online. It is full of screen shots guiding you through each step. You will learn how to select styles and color schemes for your slides, insert charts, tables, clipart & media of all types, use research tools within the program, edit and combine clipart, create animations, and find royalty-free digital images or animations online.

Another great resource for learning to use PowerPoint are the free trainings on all Office applications at the Microsoft web site.
